Eaton P005-E06-ARD-6 – Heavy-Duty C13 to C14 PDU Cords, Red 6-Pack

Product Overview

The Eaton P005-E06-ARD-6 is a heavy-duty C13-to-C14 PDU power cord set built with 14 AWG wire for network devices and servers that require a higher-rated, heavier-gauge connection. Rated for 15A at 250V, these power extension cords support large server applications common in data centers and colocation facilities. Supplied as a six-pack in red at 6 ft. (1.8 m), this set is well suited for larger rack enclosures and helps integrators standardize cable color and length across a rack build.

Product Description

These C13-to-C14 power cables use 14 AWG wire, a heavier gauge than the 18 AWG found in general-purpose jumper cords, making them a reliable fit for large server applications that require a higher-rated connection between equipment and PDU. The C13 connector matches the power inlet found on the majority of servers, switches, and network appliances, while the P-Lock C14 connector locks securely into a compatible PDU outlet to reduce the risk of an accidental disconnection during rack maintenance or moves, adds, and changes.

At 6 ft. (1.8 m), the P005-E06-ARD-6 comfortably reaches across larger rack enclosures or between equipment mounted at different rack unit heights, reducing the need for custom-length cords. The red jacket color supports color-coded cable management, a common practice in data centers running dual power paths or A/B feeds where visual circuit identification reduces the risk of human error. Supplied as a six-pack, this set is a practical option for large-scale equipment rollouts and rack standardization projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this cord work with any PDU?

The P-Lock C14 connector mates with PDUs that have a P-Lock-compatible outlet, including Eaton G4 and newer PDUs with C13 and C39 outlets. Confirm your PDU's outlet type before ordering.

Why is the cord red instead of black?

The red jacket supports color-coded cable management, commonly used to visually distinguish redundant A/B power feeds in a rack.

Is 14 AWG wire necessary for my equipment?

14 AWG is recommended for large server applications or equipment drawing higher current than a standard-gauge cord comfortably supports. Check your equipment's power draw specifications if unsure.

Can I mix these with other cord colors in the same rack?

Yes, color is cosmetic and does not affect electrical performance, so these can be mixed with other compatible cords as needed for your color-coding scheme.

What warranty applies to this power cord?

Eaton backs this unit with its standard manufacturer warranty; contact Creation Networks for the current term and any extended coverage options.

Who can help me confirm compatibility before I order?

Creation Networks' team can review your PDU and equipment inlet types to confirm compatibility before you place an order.
