APC by Schneider Electric Power Cord KIT (6 Ea) Locking C13 to C - AP8706S-NAX590

APC by Schneider Electric AP8706S-NAX590 Locking C13 to C14 Power Cord Kit (6-Pack)

Overview

The AP8706S-NAX590 is a six-piece kit of locking C13-to-C14 power cords from APC by Schneider Electric, designed for high-density rack environments where accidental disconnection is a real operational risk. The locking connector mechanism keeps each cord seated under vibration or incidental contact — a practical requirement in active data center rows, UPS-fed distribution panels, or any cabinet where cord pull-out means unplanned downtime. The blue color coding helps differentiate circuits at a glance in multi-feed racks, reducing mis-patching during moves and changes. Buying as a kit of six covers a full PDU branch or a standard half-rack device complement in a single order.

Compatibility

These cords terminate in IEC 60320 C13 (device end, locking) and C14 (source end) connectors, making them compatible with the overwhelming majority of APC rack PDUs — including the APC Rack PDU product line — as well as any rack power distribution unit or UPS output strip using standard C14 inlets. Compatible device side includes 1U/2U servers, KVM switches, network switches, patch panels with C13 receptacles, and similar rack equipment. Verify your PDU's outlet type is C14 (not C19/C20) before ordering — this cord is sized for standard 15A C13/C14 circuits, not high-current C19/C20 runs. CSA and UL Listed for North American deployments.

Installation Notes

Each cord measures 9.45 in (24 cm) in length — suited for zero-U or 1U PDU-to-device connections within the same rack section, not for cross-rack or inter-cabinet runs. Operating relative humidity range is 20–80% (non-condensing); storage altitude up to 50,000 ft. The locking C13 connector engages with a positive click and requires deliberate tab-press to release — confirm your device's C14 inlet accepts locking connectors before mass deployment. No tools required for installation.
