Power Adapter for C14 to C5 Conversion

This SMUGDESK adapter converts a standard IEC 320 C14 male outlet into an IEC C5 female socket. It enables devices with C5 power cords to connect to equipment featuring C14 ports such as server PSUs and PDUs. The compact plug-in design fits tight rackmount spaces without adding bulk. No external power or configuration is required for operation.

Suits IT Rack and Lab Setups

Ideal for administrators wiring server cabinets, lab equipment or desktop chassis where C5 devices must draw from C14 sources. Not for users who require voltage conversion or adapters for different IEC connector types. Passive design means it cannot regulate or modify the incoming AC mains supply.

IEC 320 C14 Male to C5 Female Interface

The single specification that decides fit is the IEC 320 C14 male input paired with an IEC C5 female output. Internal copper alloy contacts provide stable current transmission for standard AC mains voltage. Fire-retardant housing ensures safe operation in indoor environments. Confirm your equipment power rating matches before use.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum current the IEC 320 C14 male plug can handle continuously?

The adapter uses standard C14 and C5 connectors rated for typical AC mains voltage; the exact continuous current limit depends on the power source and cable specifications you connect.

Does the adapter generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day operation?

As a passive unit with no fan or active components, it produces no noise and only minimal warmth from the copper contacts under normal load.

Which power cords or devices must I already own to use this adapter?

You need a C14 outlet or cable on the supply side and a C5 (Mickey) power cord on the device side for the adapter to work.
