Frequently Asked Questions
What is a P-Lock C14 connector and why does it matter?
The P-Lock C14 connector features a locking mechanism that securely fastens to C15 power sources, preventing accidental disconnection. This is critical in data centers where unexpected power loss can cause equipment damage and service interruptions. The locking design ensures your PDU power cord stays connected even in high-vibration or high-traffic environments.
Can I use this PDU power cord with standard C14 connectors?
No, this cord is specifically designed for P-Lock C14 connectors. The locking mechanism requires compatible equipment. However, the C15 input connector is standard and will work with any IEC 60320 C15 power source, such as server PDUs and UPS systems.
Is 15A/250V sufficient for my server equipment?
The 15A/250V rating is suitable for most individual server power supplies and network equipment. For high-power devices or multiple connections, verify your equipment's amperage requirements. This 6-pack is ideal for deploying consistent power distribution across multiple servers in a rack configuration.
Why choose a 6-pack of PDU power cords?
The 6-pack provides cost-effective bulk purchasing for data centers, server rooms, and IT infrastructure projects. Having multiple cords on hand ensures you can quickly replace damaged cables, expand your setup, or maintain spare inventory for critical systems.
