The Tripp Lite power extension cable is designed for small data center or office workstation applications that do not require a heavy-gauge connection. With a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and a NEMA 5-15R receptable on the other, this UL listed (UL 817) cord can be used to power a printer or monitor, attach a rack server to a PDU or extend an existing connection up to 15 feet (4.6 meters). The 15-foot length allows you more flexibility in placing equipment with respect to the power outlet.
