Description

APC by Schneider Electric AP9870 Power Cord

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AP9870 is a 2.5-meter (8.2 ft) black power cord designed to connect equipment with a C13 inlet to a power source or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with a C14 outlet. This cord is suitable for IT infrastructure deployments where standard power connections are required between rack-mounted devices and power distribution units (PDUs) or UPS units. Its 10A rating supports common server and network equipment power demands.

Compatibility

This power cord is compatible with any device featuring a C13 female connector and any power source, PDU, or UPS equipped with a C14 male connector. This includes APC Smart-UPS, Back-UPS Pro, and various rack-mount PDUs, as well as third-party equipment with standard IEC C13/C14 connections. The 90-250V input voltage range ensures compatibility with global power grids.

Installation Notes

The cord features straight-style C14 male and C13 female connectors, ensuring a secure fit without awkward angles in dense rack environments. Operating temperature range is 0-45°C, and humidity 0-95% non-condensing, suitable for standard data center conditions. Non-operating temperature extends to 65°C for storage.
