APC by Schneider Electric AP98896F Power Cord Kit
Overview
The APC by Schneider Electric AP98896F is a pack of six 1.8-meter power cords, specifically designed to connect high-density rack-mount equipment to Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and Power Distribution Units (PDU). The 90-degree angled C19 connector on one end and the C20 connector on the other facilitate neat cable management in crowded server racks, preventing strain on the connections and improving airflow. This kit is crucial for deployments where standard straight-line connections would obstruct other equipment or impede ventilation.
Compatibility
This cord kit is designed for use with APC by Schneider Electric UPS units and PDUs that feature C20 input ports and require a C19 connection for the connected device. It is compatible with rack-mount servers, network switches, and other high-power IT equipment that utilize a C19 power inlet. Specifically, it is suitable for APC Smart-UPS, Back-UPS Pro, and Symmetra LX series UPS systems, as well as various rack-mount PDUs from the company's extensive catalog.
Installation Notes
The 90-degree angled connectors are designed to plug into the C20 inlet of a PDU or UPS, with the C19 end connecting to the equipment's power supply. Ensure the equipment's power draw does not exceed the cord's rating (typically 10A or 16A depending on the specific PDU/UPS configuration it's plugged into). The 1.8-meter length provides sufficient reach for most standard rack configurations without excessive cable slack.
