The HPE Standard Power Cord C13 to C14 WW 10A 2M Black 6Pc Locking Pc is a rugged, data-center-grade solution designed to deliver reliable, clean power to servers, PDUs, and other critical IT gear. Built to endure the demanding environments of busy racks, this cord provides a secure, plug-and-play power path with a versatile 2-meter reach that helps keep cabinets tidy and airflow unobstructed. It supports up to 250 V AC and 10 A, offering ample headroom for modern infrastructure while maintaining safety margins. Whether you’re upgrading, replacing aging cables, or provisioning spare cords for a growing deployment, this six-pack of C13-C14 power cords helps you streamline provisioning, reduce downtime, and simplify maintenance across mixed-brand equipment and HP/HPE deployments.

• Reliability in demanding data-center environments: Engineered to handle up to 250 V AC and 10 A, delivering steady, high-quality power to servers, PDUs, and other critical devices. The design reduces voltage drop and heat buildup, helping maintain performance under peak workloads in hot and cool data-center ranges.
• Secure, locking connectivity: The IEC 60320 C13 (female) to C14 (male) connection uses a locking-style fit that resists unintended disconnections. This robust connection minimizes downtime during cable rearrangements and equipment maintenance, ensuring continuous power delivery in active racks.
• Optimal length for modern racks: At 6.6 feet (2 meters), the cord provides flexible routing behind cabinets and across power strips, balancing reach with tidy cable management. The length helps reduce clutter, improves airflow, and simplifies routine servicing without sacrificing reach.
• Wide compatibility across deployments: The universal C13/C14 configuration is widely used across servers, PDUs, UPS inputs, and power distribution configurations. This makes the cord a straightforward replacement option for mixed-brand environments while preserving compatibility with Hewlett Packard Enterprise equipment.
• Convenient six-pack for inventory and provisioning: Sold as a 6-pack, this set simplifies stocking, spare provisioning, and rapid deployment across multiple racks. The bundled pack reduces procurement complexity and ensures IT teams are ready for capacity growth or infrastructure refreshes.

How to install HPE Standard Power Cord C13 C14 WW 10A 2M Black 6Pc Locking Pc

• 1) Before installation, verify that the equipment’s power inlet and the outlet supply match the 250 V AC, 10 A rating of the cord.
• 2) Ensure all devices and power sources are powered off or safely shut down before connecting or disconnecting cables.
• 3) Connect the IEC 60320 C13 (female) end firmly to the device inlet (servers, PDUs, UPS inputs) until the locking mechanism engages and the connection feels snug.
• 4) Plug the IEC 60320 C14 (male) end into a compatible power outlet, PDU input, or power strip, ensuring the connection is secure and free from obstruction.
• 5) Route the cord to minimize bending, avoid sharp twists, and maintain clear airflow around vents and fans. Use cable management features in racks to prevent strain on connectors during equipment movement.
• 6) If you’re deploying multiple cords from the same six-pack, label paths for easier maintenance and future expansion, and verify each connection after power is restored.
