APC by Schneider Electric PDW35L21-20R 35ft SOOW 5-Wire Cable

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric PDW35L21-20R is a 35-foot SOOW 5-wire cable assembly designed to provide reliable power connectivity for demanding applications. Its robust construction and specific connector type make it suitable for installations where standard power cords are insufficient, such as powering certain network video recorders or specialized surveillance hardware requiring a specific power configuration. The 35-foot length offers flexibility in deployment, allowing equipment to be positioned away from the power source without compromising signal integrity. This cable is manufactured in the United States, ensuring adherence to quality standards.

Compatibility

This cable features an L21-20 twist-lock connector, commonly used in commercial and industrial settings for 3-phase power distribution. It is designed to interface with equipment that requires a 5-wire configuration, typically involving multiple voltage phases and a neutral. While not specific to a single brand of surveillance equipment, it is compatible with any device or power distribution unit that utilizes an L21-20 inlet and requires a 5-wire power feed. Verify your equipment's power input specifications before ordering.

Installation Notes

The SOOW (Service, Oil-resistant, Weather-resistant, Outdoor) rating indicates the cable's suitability for outdoor use and resistance to oil and abrasion, common in industrial environments. The 5-wire configuration necessitates careful connection to a compatible power source and equipment to ensure correct phase and voltage distribution. Ensure the power source can support the load requirements of the connected equipment. The twist-lock connector provides a secure connection, preventing accidental disconnection.
