C14/C19 Coupler Cable ShiverPeaks 1.8m

The ShiverPeaks C14/C19 coupler cable 1.8m provides a reliable power connection between devices requiring an IEC C14 inlet and equipment fitted with an IEC C19 socket. At 1.8 meters in length, this cable balances reach and manageability for rack installations, rack-mounted equipment, and general IT and power-distribution setups. It is constructed to meet BS60017 requirements and is suitable for environments where standardized, robust mains cabling is needed.

Advantages

This cable supports input currents of 10 A and 16 A, offering compatibility with a range of equipment current ratings. The C14 to C19 configuration allows connection between common IEC inlets and high-current sockets without adapters. Compliance with BS60017 indicates that the cable meets established safety and performance criteria for mains cabling. The 1.8 m length provides flexibility while keeping cable routing neat in cabinets and workspaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting power distribution units (PDUs) to equipment with IEC C14 inlets
• Rack-mounted servers and networking hardware requiring a C19 socket-to-C14 connection
• Data center and server room power distribution and cabling
• Workstations or test benches where moderate cable length is required

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Connector A: IEC C14 coupler
• Connector B: IEC C19 coupler
• Rated currents: 10 A / 16 A
• Standards: constructed to BS60017-compliant requirements
• Intended use: mains power connection between compatible IEC inlets and sockets

How to use

Identify the device with the IEC C14 inlet and the power source or PDU with the IEC C19 socket. Ensure both devices are powered off or isolated from mains before connecting. Insert the C14 coupler end into the device inlet and the C19 coupler end into the PDU or socket, confirming secure seating of each connector. After connections are confirmed, restore power and verify that the connected equipment receives mains power as expected. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, pinch points, or proximity to heat sources.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable only for compatible IEC connections within the rated current. Regularly inspect the cable and connectors for signs of wear, damage, or loose contacts. Replace the cable if any insulation damage or connector deformation is observed. Maintain proper cable management in racks and avoid running the cable under heavy loads or through tight openings to preserve performance and safety.
