Middle Atlantic IEC-24X100 100-PK 24",TWIST IEC

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic IEC-24X100 is a 100-pack of 24-inch C13 twist-lock IEC power cords, designed for bulk AV rack installations requiring a large quantity of consistent, locking power connections. The twist-lock C13 connector prevents accidental disconnection of power from rack-mounted equipment, a critical requirement in professional AV and IT environments where equipment continuity is essential. Available at creationnetworks.net.

Product Description

Power cord management in professional rack installations directly impacts reliability and serviceability. Standard IEC C13 cords can be inadvertently disconnected when adjacent cables are adjusted, during equipment servicing, or through vibration in mobile or touring racks. The IEC-24X100 addresses this with a twist-lock C13 connector that requires a deliberate twist-and-pull action to disconnect, preventing accidental power loss to critical rack equipment. The 24-inch length is appropriate for within-rack connections from power distribution units (PDUs) or MPR raceway outlets to equipment mounted in the same or adjacent rack unit positions. A 100-pack format provides bulk quantity suited to large rack buildouts, campus-wide deployments, or integrator inventory stocking. Consistent cord length across a rack installation simplifies cable dressing and produces a cleaner, more organized appearance. The C13 connector mates with C14 inlets found on the majority of professional AV and IT rack equipment including amplifiers, switches, media players, UPS units, and processing hardware. The IEC-24X100 is a high-volume consumable for AV integrators completing large rack builds or stocking for recurring project use. Purchasing in bulk reduces per-unit cost and ensures cord consistency across a project. Creation Networks stocks this item for AV integrators requiring immediate availability.

Key Features

• Twist-lock C13 connector — Prevents accidental disconnection of power in critical rack installations.
• 24-inch length — Appropriate for within-rack connections from PDU or MPR raceway to adjacent equipment.
• 100-pack bulk quantity — Cost-effective for large rack buildouts and integrator inventory stocking.
• C13 to C14 connection — Compatible with the vast majority of professional AV and IT rack equipment inlets.
• Consistent cord length — Simplifies cable dressing and produces uniform rack appearance across a large installation.
• Professional-grade construction — Built for permanent, high-reliability rack installations in commercial environments.

Typical Applications

• Large AV rack builds requiring consistent power connections to all rack-mounted equipment
• Integrator inventory for recurring project use where bulk purchasing reduces cost
• Equipment rooms with PDUs or MPR raceways requiring locking power connections throughout
• Touring and mobile rack systems where vibration makes non-locking cords unreliable
• Campus or enterprise-wide AV infrastructure deployments with high rack equipment counts

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do these cords work with standard (non-twist-lock) C14 inlets on equipment?

A: Yes. The twist-lock C13 connector mates with standard C14 inlets. The locking feature activates when the connector is twisted after insertion; it does not prevent connection to non-locking inlets.

Q: Are there other length options for the Middle Atlantic IEC twist-lock cords?

A: Middle Atlantic offers IEC twist-lock cords in multiple lengths. Contact Creation Networks for availability of other lengths in the IEC series.

Q: Is this pack appropriate for a single large rack build or multiple smaller projects?

A: A 100-pack is suited to large single-rack builds with high equipment counts, or to integrator inventory for multiple projects. Average rack builds use 10-30 power cords depending on equipment density.
