Cabo de alimentação ACT C20–C21 IEC60320 preto 1,5 m, 16 A, 250 V

ACT Powercord with IEC60320 C20 to C21 connectors, black, 1.5 m length. Rated for 250 V and 16 A, this power cable connects equipment with a C21 inlet to a C20 outlet and is designed for high-power IT equipment such as servers, network switches and UPS units. The C21 connector is specified to withstand elevated temperatures up to 155°C, making it suitable for environments where higher connector temperature resistance is required.

Advantages

The cable provides a standardized IEC60320 C20–C21 connection with a straight male C20 and straight female C21 coupler, supporting up to 16 A at 250 V. With a conductor cross-section of 2.5 mm² and a length of 1.5 m, it offers a balance between current capacity and flexibility. The black jacket and industry-standard connectors ensure compatibility with many server and networking brands.

Suitable for

• Powering rack servers and tower servers
• Connecting network switches, routers and other networking equipment
• Feeding UPS units and PDUs with C21 inlets

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for devices that require different connector types (for example, C13/C14 or regional mains plugs). It is also not intended for applications exceeding the rated 16 A / 250 V or for installations that require longer runs than the 1.5 m length provided.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: IEC60320 C20 (male) to IEC60320 C21 (female)
• Rated voltage and current: 250 V~, 16 A
• C21 connector temperature resistance: up to 155°C
• Conductor cross-section: 2.5 mm²
• Colour: black

How to use

Ensure both the power source and the target device are switched off before connecting. Insert the C20 male plug into the power outlet or PDU and the C21 female end into the device inlet until a secure connection is made. After connecting, switch on the power source and verify that the device powers up correctly. Inspect the cable periodically for wear or damage and replace if any insulation or connector degradation is visible.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the device inlet is IEC60320 C21 and the power source accepts an IEC60320 C20 plug
• Confirm that 16 A and 250 V ratings meet the power requirements of your equipment
• Check that 1.5 m cable length is sufficient for your rack or cabinet layout

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use the cable in well-ventilated racks to avoid excessive connector temperatures and route the cable to avoid sharp bends or mechanical strain; replace the cable if any signs of overheating or physical damage appear.
