Application Notes
IEC 60320 C14 to VS-Lock C13 power cords lock at both ends of the power path. The VS-Lock C14 plug is compatible with both V-Lock and W-Lock PDU C13 outlet systems.
On the equipment end, the S-Lock C13 connector locks to any standard C14 inlet without requiring a proprietary or notched inlet on the device. Together, the VS-Lock plug and S-Lock connector deliver dual-end locking conenctions in a single cord across a wide possible range of PDUs and equipment.
Product FAQs
How does a VS-Lock C14 to C13 cord work?
The VS-Lock C14 plug locks into compatible V-Lock and W-Lock PDU C13 outlets, securing the cord at the power source. The S-Lock C13 connector on the equipment end locks to any standard C14 inlet. The result is dual-end locking across a wide range of PDUs and equipment.
Does the equipment need a special inlet for the S-Lock C13 end to lock?
No. The S-Lock C13 connector is universal and locks to any standard C14 inlet. No proprietary inlet is required.
What devices use a C14 to VS-Lock C13 power cord?
These cords are commonly used with servers, switches, routers, storage units, and other C14-equipped equipment where an inadvertent power disconnect would cause downtime, data loss, or safety concerns.
