InLine® Mains Adapter Cable, IEC C14 Threaded to Earthing Contact Socket, 0.5 m

Data centre technicians and office IT staff often face the challenge of connecting devices with C14 inlets—such as UPS units, PDUs, or network switches—to standard Schuko wall outlets. This 0.5 m adapter cable solves that problem instantly: plug the angled IEC C14 connector into your equipment, then connect the earthing contact socket to any standard mains plug. The short length keeps cable clutter to a minimum inside server racks or behind desks, while the threaded C14 design ensures a secure, vibration-resistant connection.

Key specifications

• Connector 1: IEC 60320 C14 male (threaded, angled)
• Connector 2: CEE 7/3 earthing contact socket (Schuko) female
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Conductor cross-section: 3 x 1.0 mm²
• Cable standard: H05VV-F
• Rated voltage: 250 V AC
• Rated current: 10 A
• Colour: black
• Material: PVC jacket and insulation
• Certifications: CE, RoHS

Why choose it

The threaded IEC C14 connector prevents accidental disconnection, making it ideal for equipment that must stay powered without interruption. The robust PVC jacket withstands daily handling, and the 1.0 mm² conductors safely carry up to 10 A. Its compact 0.5 m length reduces tangles and improves airflow in dense rack environments.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting a UPS or PDU with a C14 inlet to a wall outlet
• Powering network switches, small servers, or AV equipment
• Replacing lost or damaged power cords in server rooms
• Creating short, tidy power links in office workstations

Good to know

This adapter cable is not a voltage converter; it simply adapts the physical connection. Always ensure your device accepts 230 V AC mains voltage. The angled C14 plug saves space behind equipment, and the earthing contact socket accepts standard Schuko plugs. CE and RoHS compliance guarantees safety and environmental standards.
