Netkabel ACT C14 naar C21 IEC60320 zwart 2,5 m, 250 V, 10 A

ACT power cord with IEC60320 connectors C14 (male) to C21 (female) in black, 2.5 m length. Rated for 250 V and 10 A, this cable is designed to deliver mains power to compatible IT equipment such as servers, UPS units and power distribution devices that accept C21 inlets. The C21 connector is high-temperature resistant up to 155°C, making it suitable for applications where elevated connector temperatures may occur.

Advantages

The cable provides a straightforward connection between C14 outlets and C21 inlets, offering a 2.5 m reach and a compact 1 mm² conductor cross-section. Its black jacket and standardized IEC60320 connectors ensure compatibility with many server and network devices. Temperature-resistant construction at the C21 end increases durability in demanding environments.

Suitable for

• Powering rack servers and tower servers that accept C21 inlets
• Connecting UPS units and power distribution units (PDUs) to C14 outlets
• Data center and office IT equipment including network switches and hardware from common brands such as HP and Cisco

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for devices that require different inlet types (for example C13, C19 or regional mains plugs). It also should not be used where a higher current or voltage rating is required than the specified 250 V / 10 A, or where additional shielding or specialty wiring is mandated.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2.5 m
• Connectors: IEC60320 C14 (male) to IEC60320 C21 (female)
• Rated voltage and current: 250 V, 10 A
• Connector temperature resistance: C21 up to 155°C
• Conductor cross-section: 1.0 mm²
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert the C14 male connector into a compatible C14 outlet or PDU and plug the C21 female connector into the device inlet that accepts C21. Ensure power is switched off at the distribution unit before connecting or disconnecting the cable. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and stress at the connector ends and verify secure seating before powering equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the target device has a C21 inlet (not C13 or C19)
• Check that 250 V / 10 A meets the device power requirements
• Ensure 2.5 m length is sufficient for equipment placement and cable management

Recommendations

Use the cable in controlled indoor environments such as data centers and offices; avoid exposure to liquids or extreme mechanical stress. Inspect connectors periodically for signs of wear and replace the cable if damage or overheating is observed.
