The primary use for these cables is in connecting server/computer systems, network switches, and other rack-mountable and high-density hardware in the data center and server room to power delivery units and/or uninterruptible power supply power banks/walls. Other common uses include extending any C13 ended cable by an additional 6 feet. This 6-foot red computer/monitor/printer power extension cord features a C13 (female) connector on one end and a C14 (male) connector on the other end. The cable is SVT with 3 14AWG (American Wire Gauge) conductors rated for 125 Volts, 15 Amps, and an operating temperature of 105C.
These cables are offered in a variety of lengths and colors in order to provide the greatest flexibility and clarity in a highly stressful environment. If you color-code your hardware's power connections you are less likely to make mistakes, especially when things are going wrong.
