ACT PC3643 Power Cord with C19 and C20 Dual Locking Connectors White 3 m

The ACT PC3643 power cord is a reliable 3-meter white cable equipped with C19 and C20 dual locking connectors, designed to secure continuous power delivery for critical IT hardware. Featuring an IEC lock mechanism on both ends, this power cord prevents accidental disconnections and minimizes the risk of downtime or equipment damage in demanding server rooms and data centers.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this power cable is its dual locking mechanism that secures both the device and the PDU side without requiring any specialized tools or built-in PDU locks. The universal locking design fits standard equipment and power distribution units, ensuring robust retention against vibrations or accidental pulls. Its clean white finish also facilitates neat cable management and visual identification within complex rack setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers and high-performance IT hardware
• Power distribution units (PDUs) in data centers
• Critical network switches and routers
• Environments prone to accidental cable disconnections

When it may not be suitable

This power cord may not be suitable for standard office appliances or devices that lack compatible C19 or C20 connection ports. Additionally, applications requiring cable lengths significantly shorter or longer than 3 meters will need alternative solutions.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Connector 1: C19 coupler straight female with IEC lock
• Connector 2: C20 coupler straight male with dual locking mechanism
• Maximum load: 16A / 250V
• Conductor cross-section: 1.5 mm²

How to use

Plug the C19 connector into the compatible power inlet of your server or IT equipment until the locking mechanism engages securely. Insert the C20 connector into the PDU outlet, where the dual side and top locks will automatically grip to prevent pull-out. To disconnect, simply release the locking mechanism manually according to the connector design without applying excessive force to the cable.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your IT equipment features C19 and C20 connection ports
• Confirm that your power source supports 16A and 250V electrical specifications
• Check if the 3-meter cable length is optimal for your rack layout

Usage recommendations: Inspect the locking mechanisms periodically during routine maintenance to ensure proper retention and avoid routing the cable across sharp edges or high-traffic areas.
