Advantages

This power cord offers high durability and reliable performance under continuous operational loads. The integrated C21 connector is specifically engineered to be high temperature resistant up to 155 degrees Celsius, making it exceptionally safe for heat-intensive hardware setups. The distinct blue color allows for easy visual identification and cable management within complex rack installations, helping to differentiate power paths from standard black cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting high-power servers from major brands
• Powering network switches and routers in data centers
• Professional IT infrastructure and server rack management
• High-temperature hardware environments

This power cord may not be suitable for standard consumer electronics, household appliances, or office devices that utilize conventional wall outlets or standard plugs, as it is specifically designed for specialized professional IT hardware with C20 and C21 interfaces.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 meters
• Connector 1: C20 straight male coupler
• Connector 2: C21 straight female coupler
• Input voltage: 250 V
• Input current: 16 A
• Conductor cross-section: 2.5 mm²
• Maximum temperature resistance for C21 connector: up to 155°C
• Color: Blue

To use the power cord, ensure that both the power source and the connected device are powered off before installation. Insert the C20 male coupler firmly into the corresponding power output, such as a PDU or UPS unit. Then, connect the C21 female coupler securely into the power input port of the target server or network switch. Verify that all connections are fully seated and that the electrical load parameters match the cable specifications before restoring power.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your equipment utilizes C20 and C21 IEC60320 interfaces
• Check that your power source supports a 250V and 16A electrical load
• Measure the required distance between the power source and the device to ensure the 3-meter length is sufficient
• Evaluate color-coding needs for your server rack cable organization strategy

For optimal safety and performance, always verify electrical compatibility ratings with your hardware specifications and ensure cables are routed without sharp bends or pinching in rack enclosures.
