Middle Atlantic SignalSAFE IEC-6X20-90R Standard Power Cord
Upgrade your critical gear with a power cord designed for professional environments. The SignalSAFE IEC-6X20-90R Standard Power Cord from Middle Atlantic replaces ordinary power cords with a cable engineered for reliability, versatility, and durability in demanding AV, pro audio, data, and rack setups. Built to withstand the rigors of daily rack wear, cable management challenges, and tight installation spaces, this cord delivers clean, secure power to devices while reducing the risk of unplugging or wear that can disrupt workflows. Whether you’re outfitting a broadcast studio, data room, or home theater rack, SignalSAFE cords are crafted to keep your equipment energized and ready, without compromising on safety or performance.
- Professional-grade replacement: SignalSAFE cords are designed to outperform standard power cords by offering robust construction, durable insulation, and strain relief that hold up under heavy use in crowded racks and frequent reconfigurations. They’re built to provide dependable power delivery for sensitive equipment, minimizing downtime and maintenance needs.
- IEC 60320 C13 first end connector: The first end features the IEC 60320 C13 connector, which securely mates with device inlets that accept C13 plugs. This arrangement is ideal for powering a wide range of servers, network gear, amplifiers, and AV components that rely on standard IEC power interfaces, delivering a reliable and familiar connection for many common devices.
- 90-degree angled plug options: The 90-degree (90R) plug design helps you maximize space behind equipment and within crowded racks. By turning the plug toward the side, the cord stays out of the way of ventilation, airflow, and neighboring cables, reducing cable tension and the risk of accidental unplugging.
- Standard or low-profile configurations: Choose between standard and low-profile plug configurations to match your installation needs. Low-profile plugs offer even tighter clearance in compact enclosures, while standard plugs provide straightforward, universal compatibility in a wider range of layouts.
- Versatile, multi-size availability: This cord is available in multiple lengths and configurations to fit your exact setup. Whether you’re wiring a single workstation, a rack-mounted chassis, or a large equipment array, SignalSAFE gives you the flexibility to plan clean, efficient power runs with fewer suboptimal bends or tension points.

How to install Middle Atlantic SignalSAFE IEC-6X20-90R Standard Power Cord
Step 1: Power down the equipment you plan to connect and unplug any existing cords to ensure a safe replacement.
Step 2: Inspect the device inlet to confirm it accepts a C13 connector. Align the IEC 60320 C13 end of the SignalSAFE cord with the device’s inlet and gently push until seated securely.
Step 3: Route the cable along the back of the rack or equipment shelf, using cable management tools or ties to minimize strain and prevent interference with fans, vents, or other cords. If space is tight, opt for the 90-degree plug option to reduce protrusion and maintain clean airflow.
Step 4: Plug the opposite end of the cord into a compatible AC outlet or power strip designed for your venue’s electrical specifications. Ensure the outlet is energized and that the connection is firm and stable.
Step 5: Power on the connected equipment and verify proper operation. Check that the cable remains secure, free from visible damage, and that movement or rearrangement won’t place undue stress on the cord or connectors.
