Panduit NPCA03-X Non-Locking Power Cordie

Overview

The Panduit NPCA03-X is a non-locking power cordie designed for secure and reliable power connections within IT infrastructure. It terminates in a C14 inlet, commonly found on network switches, servers, and other rack-mount equipment, connecting to a standard C13 receptacle on a PDU. This cordie ensures a stable power feed, preventing accidental disconnections in high-density environments. Its 10A, 125V rating makes it suitable for standard North American power distribution units.

Compatibility

This cordie is compatible with any device featuring a C14 power inlet and any PDU or wall outlet with a C13 receptacle. It is a direct replacement for standard, non-locking C14 to C13 power cords used in server racks and data centers. Specific compatible equipment includes many models from brands like Dell, HP, Cisco, and APC that utilize a C14 inlet for their power supply.

Installation Notes

Ensure the equipment's power requirement does not exceed the cordie's 10A rating. Verify the C14 inlet on the device and the C13 receptacle on the PDU are clean and free of debris before connecting. This is a non-locking cordie; for applications requiring enhanced security against vibration or accidental unplugging, consider locking cordie variants.
