Key Locking Technologies

IEC LOCK C13 & IEC LOCK C19

• Built-in locking latch retains standard IEC plugs.

• Prevents accidental removal caused by vibration or strain.

• Ideal for servers, switches, storage, AV gear, and industrial devices.

IEC LOCK CX (4-in-1 Locking Outlet)

A single outlet supports:

• C14

• C16

• C20 

• C22 

All with the IEC Lock retention system.
This dramatically increases flexibility when supporting mixed equipment or devices with unusual plug types.

 

Key Features

• Secure locking outlets: IEC LOCK C13, IEC LOCK C19, or IEC LOCK CX.

• Vertical (0U) and horizontal (1U/2U) rack-mountable models.

• Multiple configuration options including mixed IEC/GPO rails.

• Single-phase and three-phase availability.

• Circuit breakers or overload protection built in.

• Suitable for UPS systems, servers, switches, patching equipment, and AV racks.

 

Typical Use Cases

• Data centres: Prevent accidental outages during cable changes or maintenance.

• High-movement environments: Racks that experience vibration or frequent access.

• AV & broadcast: Protect against disconnection from people accessing racks or bumping equipment.

• Edge compute / remote racks: Reduce risk of downtime without onsite support.

• Industrial & manufacturing: Equipment exposed to vibration or cable strain.

 

How to Choose a Locking-Socket Rack PDU / Power Rail

1. Determine which locking technology you need:

   • IEC Lock C13 / IEC LOCK C19 for standard certain IT loads

   • IEC Lock CX for mixed or specialised or evolving loads

2. Outlet quantity & layout: 
   Choose the right number and type of sockets.

3. Form factor: 
   Vertical 0U for dense racks, 1U/2U for traditional mounting.

4. Input rating: 
   Match your infrastructure (single-phase or three-phase).

5. Cable management: 
   Consider retention, routing, and ease of servicing.
