FAQs
What is the difference between a locking and standard power cord?
Locking power cords feature connectors with a locking mechanism that securely grips the receptacle, preventing accidental disconnection. Standard cords rely solely on the connector's grip. The APC AP8760's locking feature activates when used with APC AP8000 series PDUs or equipment with built-in locking receptacles, significantly reducing the risk of unplanned power loss.
Can I use the AP8760 with non-APC equipment?
Yes, the AP8760 is compatible with any standard IEC C19 and C20 receptacles. However, the locking feature only functions when used with APC AP8000 series Rack PDUs or IT equipment that has built-in locking receptacles. With standard equipment, it operates as a conventional power cord.
What is the 3.0m length suitable for?
The 3.0-metre length provides flexibility for connecting rack-mount PDUs to IT equipment within standard rack enclosures and nearby installations. This length accommodates typical data centre and server room configurations without excessive cable slack or tension.
Is the AP8760 suitable for data centre use?
Yes, the AP8760 is specifically designed for professional data centre and server room environments. The locking connector design makes it ideal for mission-critical infrastructure where accidental power disconnection must be prevented, ensuring continuous uptime and operational reliability.
What warranty coverage is included?
The APC AP8760 comes with a 24-month manufacturer warranty, providing comprehensive coverage for defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty supports long-term reliability and investment protection in your power distribution infrastructure.
Does the locking connector work with all PDU models?
The locking feature is enabled specifically with APC AP8000 series Rack PDUs and IT equipment featuring built-in locking receptacles. The cord remains fully compatible with standard IEC C19 and C20 receptacles on other equipment, though the locking benefit is only realised with compatible sockets.
