HPE C5 250V 2.5AMP Black 1.83M BR Power Cord - P86423-B21

HPE P86423-B21 Standard Power Cord

Overview

The HPE P86423-B21 is a 250V AC power cord rated for 2.5A continuous draw, terminated with an IEC 60320 C5 connector on one end. The 6-foot (1.83m) length fits typical server and network appliance installations where the power outlet sits a moderate distance from the device. This is a Brazil-localized variant, meaning the cord meets local electrical safety standards and connector expectations for that market.

Compatibility

The IEC 60320 C5 connector (the "mickey mouse" three-hole pattern) is the standard inlet on countless enterprise power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), network switches, NVRs, and rack-mount PDUs. Confirm your device has a female C5 inlet before ordering — C5 is distinct from C7 (two-prong, lower amperage) and C13 (three rectangular holes, 10A+). If your equipment is North American or uses a different connector standard, this cord will not fit.

Installation Notes

The 6-foot cord length (1.83m) suits cabinet-to-outlet runs of moderate distance; longer runs may require a separate extension. The 250V AC rating and 2.5A current capacity handle standard server PSU input power in markets where 250V is the grid standard. Do not exceed the rated current or use this cord with devices requiring higher amperage — thermal damage and fire risk increase with overload. Ensure the outlet and cord path are free of sharp edges, standing water, and chemical splash in surveillance or network closet environments. Route the cord away from high-heat equipment and moving machinery.
