APC Power Cord Kit (6 ea), Locking, C13 to C14, 0.6m, North America

Overview

The APC AP8702S-NA is a kit of six locking power cords designed to connect devices with IEC C14 inlets to C13 outlets securely. Each cable measures 0.6 meters, making it ideal for maintaining neat and efficient rack setups without excess cable slack. These cords are rated for up to 10 amps, supporting a wide range of servers, switches, and storage devices commonly found in data centers and edge locations.

By incorporating a locking mechanism, these cables prevent accidental disconnections that could disrupt critical equipment. They are compatible with APC AP8000 series PDUs and any device featuring a matching locking receptacle, while also maintaining compatibility with standard non-locking IEC inlets and outlets for flexible deployment.

Connectivity and compatibility

These power cords are designed to work seamlessly with APC AP8000 series power distribution units and any equipment featuring locking IEC C14 inlets. Their standard IEC connectors also allow use with non-locking devices, providing flexibility to integrate into existing power setups without immediate replacement of all cables or outlets.

• Locking IEC C13 to C14 connectors for secure power delivery
• Compatible with standard IEC inlets and outlets for broad device support
• Ideal for rack-mount servers, network switches, and storage appliances

Ideal uses and environments

This kit is well suited for IT professionals managing high-density racks, branch office equipment, or lab benches where secure and organized power connections are critical. The short cable length helps maintain airflow and reduces cable strain, making it easier to maintain and audit power circuits in data centers or edge computing environments.

It is a strong choice for teams looking to upgrade to locking power connections gradually while maintaining compatibility with existing non-locking equipment.
