Description

StarTech PAC1016 AC Power Extension Cord

Overview

The StarTech PAC1016 is a 6-foot (1.8m) power extension cord designed to provide additional reach for NEMA 5-15R power supplies. This 16AWG cable supports up to 13A at 125V AC, making it suitable for extending power to surveillance cameras, network switches, or other IT equipment where the standard power cord falls short. Its PVC jacket and 3-conductor design ensure reliable power delivery in standard indoor environments.

Compatibility

This extension cord is compatible with any device utilizing a standard NEMA 5-15R power input connector. This includes most standard computer power supplies, monitors, printers, and a wide range of surveillance equipment such as IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), and managed switches that do not have proprietary power connectors. It is designed to connect to a standard NEMA 5-15P wall outlet or power strip.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of 37°F to 140°F (3°C to 60°C). The 16AWG wire gauge ensures sufficient current carrying capacity for devices drawing up to 13A. The VW-1 fire rating indicates it meets specific flammability standards. Ensure the connection points (both the device's power cord and the wall outlet/power strip) are clean and dry before connecting.
