Power cord for rack equipment

The APC AP9870 is a 2.5 metre black cable with an IEC-320 C14 plug at one end and an IEC 320 C13 connector at the other. It links a server or UPS to a PDU or wall outlet inside a cabinet. The 8.2 foot length reaches between adjacent rack units without excess slack. It is sold new as a server accessory.

Suits standard IEC power links

This cord fits any device that accepts a C13 inlet and draws power from a C14 source, making it useful for server, storage or network gear in a rack. Builders who need a different connector type, a longer run, or a coloured cable for circuit identification should look at other options.

C13 to C14 IEC 320 connection

The single deciding specification is the pair of IEC 320 connectors: a C14 input and a C13 output. If your equipment uses that exact combination the cord will connect directly; if either end differs you will need a different lead.

Questions about this item

What connectors come on the AP9870 and do I need any extra adapters?

The cord has an IEC-320 C14 plug on one end and an IEC 320 C13 socket on the other. No separate adapters are required if your equipment matches those connectors.

The AP9870 is listed at 2.5 metres — is that the only length available under this model number?

The supplied data specifies a single cord length of 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) for the AP9870.

Will the 2.5-metre C13-to-C14 cord reach from a floor-mounted PDU to a rack-mounted server?

At 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) the cord spans a typical floor-to-rack distance, but measure your exact run before installing.
