AI-generated summary
If you actually need an APC-branded C19-to-C20 link, this is the right kind of cable—properly built for UPS-to-PDU/server rack use and long enough to avoid awkward “cable wrestling” in most UK rack installs. Paying £189.29 ex-VAT for a power lead feels steep, but in a reseller environment that price usually reflects reliability and consistent termination (the stuff you can’t afford to get wrong when it’s feeding equipment that’s meant to stay up).
Who should buy it: anyone wiring an APC UPS to an in-rack distribution unit or server where you specifically need C19 on the UPS side and C20 on the load side, and where 4.5m avoids re-routing around vertical rails/batteries/cable managers. Who should think twice: if you’re just doing a short, simple run, or you don’t strictly need C19/C20 (or APC branding), cheaper “equivalent” cables can be tempting—but only if they’re genuinely rated and correctly terminated. If you don’t already know the exact connector pairing and routing distance, I’d confirm that first; the cost of being wrong with power cabling is high (and it’s not a “try it and see” item).
