Frequently Asked Questions
What devices use C20 to C21 power connectors?
C20 to C21 connectors are standard on high-power IT equipment including blade servers, large network switches, managed PDUs, enterprise-class routers, and rack-mounted UPS systems that require 20A or higher power delivery.
Is this power cord suitable for data center environments?
Yes. The Eaton Tripp Lite P035-004-ABL is specifically designed for data center and network infrastructure applications. Its 105°C temperature rating, UL certification, and heavy-duty construction make it ideal for demanding server room conditions with high ambient heat and continuous operation.
What is the difference between C20 and C21 connectors?
The C20 connector (male) plugs into power distribution units or UPS systems, while the C21 connector (female) connects to high-powered server and network equipment. This configuration allows the cord to safely deliver 20A at 250V between infrastructure components.
Can I use this cord for 120V equipment?
No. This cord is rated for 250V applications only. Using it with 120V equipment would be unsafe and is not recommended. Always match the cord voltage rating to your equipment specifications.
