High-draw IT equipment needs a power connection that keeps up. Whether you are linking a UPS to a rack PDU or connecting a server to a power distribution unit, the right IEC C20 to IEC C19 lead matters. Furthermore, using the wrong cable in a 16A environment creates risk. The Blue Cable Co® CAB-C19-C20 is built specifically for these applications.
This is an IEC 60320 C20 male to IEC 60320 C19 female power lead rated at 16A. It uses 1.5mm² conductors throughout. As a result, it handles the current-carrying demands of higher-power rack and data centre applications. Common use cases include UPS output connections, rack PDU inputs, server power feeds, and enterprise switching gear.
Three lengths cover the most common installation scenarios. The 1m length suits short in-rack connections between adjacent units. The 3m option works well for cabinet-to-PDU runs with some routing flexibility. The 5m length, on the other hand, handles longer cross-cabinet runs or installations where the PDU sits further from the equipment. All three keep cable routing clean without excess slack.
Colour coding is also part of the range. Black suits most standard rack environments. Blue and red, however, allow you to separate circuits at a glance. This is especially useful for dual-feed setups, A and B power paths, or any environment where fast visual identification of power sources matters. Together, the three colours give installers a consistent way to manage power circuit identification across the rack.
The Blue Cable Co® IEC C20 to IEC C19 Power Cable carries the Blue Cable Co® 5-Year Advanced Warranty. It is available through our authorised Australian distributors, XS Network Tech and IP Trading.
