Key Specifications & Features Cable length: 6 ft (≈ 1.83 m) Conductor gauge: 18 AWG, 3‑core Input end: NEMA 5‑15P (male) Output end: IEC 60320 C13 (female) Current/voltage rating: Suitable for loads up to ~10 A / 125 V (confirm per device specification) Molded connectors with strain relief Durable PVC insulation, flame‑rated for safety Flexible yet sturdy—designed for rack mount, desktop, and general use Advantages & Use Cases Optimal length: 6 ft provides sufficient reach without excessive slack in typical set‑ups (server rack power shelf, desktop PC setups, switch/UPS connections) Universality: Compatible with most computers, network switches, UPS units, monitors, and standard IT equipment Durability: Molded ends and strain relief protect termination integrity under daily use Local availability, fast support: Kept in stock by Tri‑Tek in Mesa, AZ, enabling quick replacement or fulfillment for Phoenix‑area jobs Typical Installation Scenario An installer is wiring a small network rack in an office suite where the power strip is mounted 5 ft behind the server shelf. The 6 ft length of CORD‑1‑6 provides just enough slack for clean cable routing without bunching excess cable. The molded connectors and strain relief help ensure long‑term reliability, especially in dense cable bundles. Because Tri‑Tek maintains local stock, the installer can quickly source spares or replacements for future jobs in Phoenix or Mesa. Installation & Safety Notes Always confirm that attached device’s current draw remains under the recommended thresholds for 18 AWG (commonly up to ~10 A) Avoid bundling this power cord with high‑power lines or heat sources that could degrade the insulation Inspect periodically for cuts, abrasions, or damage. Replace immediately in case of any compromise As a standard “in‑stock” item, CORD‑1‑6 may ship quickly — but due to logistics, always order extra units for critical deployments

This 9-foot cable features: Input end: NEMA 5‑15P (U.S. 3‑prong plug) Output end: IEC 60320 C13 female connector Length: 9 ft (≈ 2.74 m) Conductor: 3 × 18 AWG copper Rated capacity: Suitable for loads up to roughly 10 A at 125 V (verify with your device specifications) Molded strain‑relieved ends to reduce stress at terminations PVC insulation / jacket, flame‑rated to industry norms Durable flexibility suited to rack, shelf, or endpoint power routing Features & Benefits Extended reach: 9 ft offers flexibility in placing equipment farther from wall receptacles Standard connectivity: Works with most computers, network switches, UPS units, monitors, and servers Molded, strain‑relieved ends: Enhances mechanical durability, especially in frequent‑use or replug environments Closeout pricing: Exceptional value while supplies last Local fulfillment: In‑stock at Tri‑Tek’s Mesa, AZ warehouse for fast delivery and support throughout Phoenix metro Installation Scenario Example Suppose you are deploying a small rack in a conference room where the PDU or outlet is some distance away—say 8 ft away. The 9 ft length of the CORD‑1‑9 gives you slack to route neatly along cable troughs and rack edges without tight bends. Because Tri‑Tek holds this in Mesa, AZ, you or your crew can pick up spares or replacements rapidly for jobs around Phoenix. Important Notes & Best Practices Confirm the connected equipment’s current draw remains below ~10 A for safe operation on 18 AWG. Avoid bundling this cord tightly with other high-current or heat‑generating cables to prevent overheating. Inspect periodically (especially at ends) for nicks, cuts, or insulation damage, and replace immediately if compromised. Because it is a closeout item, quantities are strictly limited — once it sells out, it may not be restocked at this price.

Hosa PWA‑486 — Right‑Angle Power Adapter (NEMA 5‑15R → NEMA 5‑15P) Product Overview The Hosa PWA‑486 is a compact, right‑angle AC power adapter that converts a female NEMA 5‑15R receptacle to a male NEMA 5‑15P plug. It reorients a standard grounded three-prong plug by 90 degrees, allowing for more efficient use of space in tight or shallow installation areas such as behind furniture, AV racks, and wall-mounted equipment. This adapter supports full three-wire electrical connectivity—hot, neutral, and ground—ensuring safe and reliable power transmission. Its durable design makes it suitable for both residential and professional AV, IT, and low-voltage environments. Key Features & Specifications Parameter Description Input / Receptacle NEMA 5‑15R (female, grounded) Output / Plug NEMA 5‑15P (male, grounded) Orientation 90° right-angle Electrical Support 3-wire (grounded) configuration Use Environment Tight clearance spaces, equipment racks, wall outlets Build Rigid molded body for durability and contact security Use Cases & Best Practices Flush Wall or Tight Outlet SpacesIdeal when a standard power cord cannot fit due to limited clearance between the plug and the wall. The 90° design allows the cord to exit parallel to the wall, saving space and reducing strain. AV & IT Rack SystemsCommonly used behind equipment racks where power strips or devices must fit close to mounting surfaces. Helps maintain clean cable paths and prevents plug interference. Improved Cable ManagementHelps direct power cords downward or sideways immediately after exiting the receptacle, reducing stress on plugs and improving wire dressing in confined setups. Safe Grounded ConnectionsMaintains a full ground path, making it suitable for electronics and other devices that require grounded connections for safety and performance. Example Installation Scenario An AV integrator is setting up a media control hub inside a wall-mounted enclosure. The standard three-prong plug on the power conditioner would not clear the back of the enclosure without bending. The Hosa PWA‑486 adapter allows the plug to exit at a right angle, resolving the clearance issue and maintaining safe, reliable power delivery. In another case, a technician working in a shallow IT rack installs this adapter to allow a PDU's power cable to sit flush against the rear panel, reducing cable bend radius and improving long-term cable life. Tri‑Tek Electronics is an authorized distributor of Hosa products. We offer full manufacturer warranty, factory support, and competitive pricing. Customers in Mesa, Phoenix, Chandler, Tempe, Gilbert, Scottsdale, Glendale, and surrounding Arizona areas can take advantage of our local retail store and expert support staff.
