Light Duty Multi-Outlet Extension Cords
Designed for indoor applications, these cords are often used to power multiple appliances from one outlet.
Cords with a 90° elbow plug fit flush against a wall outlet, so they fit behind machinery or in areas where space is tight.
SPT cords have a flat cord shape so they fit in tight spaces.

Electronic Equipment Cord Splitters
Power multiple devices from one power source. Use these splitters with computers, lab equipment, and office machines that have IEC connections.
Use SJT cords in dry or damp locations.
SVT cords are ultra-flexible and as pliable as vacuum cleaner cords. They withstand repeated winding.

Shielded Ethernet Cords
The shielding on these cords blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches. For faster data transmission speeds, choose a cord with a higher ethernet cable category. They’re backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category.
Cords with braid and foil shielding have better protection than cords with only foil shielding, which is especially important for higher transmission speeds or longer lengths of cord. However, the added shielding increases cord diameter and reduces flexibility.
90° elbow plugs fit flush against equipment, so they fit behind machinery or in areas where space is tight.

Ethernet Cords
These Ethernet cords are backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches.
Continuous-Flex Ethernet Cords
Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. The shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches. For faster data transmission speeds, choose a cord with a higher industry designation category. They’re backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category. All stand up to some abrasion.
Cords with polyurethane rubber insulation resist abrasion better and bend further than cords with PVC plastic insulation. You can use them indoors or outdoors, though you shouldn’t use them in harsh settings. They’re halogen free.

Shielded Panel-Mount Ethernet Cords
Often used in labs, storage facilities, and offices, the shielding blocks low to moderate signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. These cords have a flange on the socket end to mount them in a panel cutout. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches. For faster data transmission speeds, choose a cord with a higher ethernet cable category. All are backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category.
Screw-on cords require you to drill mounting holes and use fasteners to mount them in a panel cutout.
