What devices can I plug into this splitter?

Two devices with C14 inlets, such as monitors, PDU-fed servers or network gear. It will not fit standard US wall outlets on the output side.

Can it handle a space heater or high-wattage load?

No. It is rated 10A at 125V, so keep total draw across both outputs under that. Use a heavier-gauge cord for high-draw appliances.

Does it work with a UPS or PDU?

Yes. The C14 male end plugs into a C13 outlet on a PDU or UPS, and the two C13 females feed your devices.

How is this different from a power strip?

It is a passive splitter, not a strip with a breaker or switch. It simply divides one outlet into two C13 connections.

What is the wire gauge and jacket?

18 AWG, three-conductor copper in a black PVC SJT jacket, VW-1 fire rated and rated for 37°F to 140°F.

What reviewers say

Buyers who mention this splitter treat it as a plain, reliable adapter for feeding two devices from one outlet. Complaints center on the current limit and the C13-only ends rather than build quality.

Build qualityPraisedOwners describe the molded connectors and jacket as sturdy and rack-ready.
Current ratingCriticisedSome buyers find the 10A limit too low for heavier equipment.
Connector fitMixedThe C13 outputs work for C14 inlets but not for ordinary wall plugs, which surprises some buyers.
LengthPraisedThe 6 ft reach is called handy for routing inside cabinets and racks.
