MicroConnect MC-C19C20LOCK-1.5M Power Cable — C19 to C20 with IEC Locking, 1.5 m

MicroConnect MC-C19C20LOCK-1.5M is a 1.5 m power cable with a C19 connector to a C20 inlet and an integrated IEC locking mechanism. The cable is engineered to provide a secure power connection for high-current IT devices such as servers, power distribution units (PDUs) and rack-mounted equipment. Its locking feature reduces the risk of accidental disconnection in dense rack environments, supporting continuous operation and safer cable management.

Advantages

The integrated IEC lock secures the C19–C20 mating to prevent unintended unplugging during maintenance or equipment movement. The 1.5 m length balances reach and cable management inside racks and cabinets. Construction suitable for high-current use delivers reliable power delivery to equipment that requires C19/C20 connections. The cable’s fit and finish are aligned with common data center and enterprise standards for compatibility and durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers to PDUs in server racks
• Feeding high-current network and storage equipment
• Use in data centers and telecommunications rooms where secure connections are required
• Environments where accidental disconnection must be avoided during maintenance

Key specifications

• Length: 1.5 m
• Connector A: IEC 60320 C19
• Connector B: IEC 60320 C20 inlet
• Locking mechanism: Integrated IEC lock to prevent accidental disconnection
• Designed for high-current IT equipment
• Suitable for rack and cabinet installations

How to use

Insert the C19 plug into the device inlet and push until the locking mechanism engages with the C20 receptacle; confirm the lock is secured by a gentle pull test. To remove, release the lock according to the mechanism design (press or slide the release) and then withdraw the plug. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it within the rack to minimize strain on connectors and to maintain airflow.

Recommendations

Use the cable in accordance with the power ratings of the connected equipment and follow site electrical safety rules. Regularly inspect the connector and locking mechanism for wear or damage and replace the cable if any signs of deterioration appear. Ensure proper cable management to prevent tension on the connectors and to maintain cooling efficiency in racks.
