SecureLock™ Outlets and Cords
SecureLock
™
is an innovative mechanism designed by Raritan, which
securely holds C14 or C20 plugs that are plugged into Raritan PDUs in
place. This method requires the following two components:

Raritan PDU with SecureLock
™
outlets, which have a latch slot inside
either side of the outlet.

SecureLock
™
cords, which is a power cord with a locking latch on
each side of its plug. The following diagram illustrates such a plug.
Item Description
A Latches on the SecureLock
™
cord's plug
Only specific PDUs are implemented with the SecureLock
™
mechanism.
If your PDU does not have this design, do NOT use the SecureLock
™
cords
with it.
Tip: The SecureLock
™
outlets can accept regular power cords for power
distribution but the SecureLock
™
mechanism does not take effect.
To lock a power cord using the SecureLock
™
mechanism:
1. Verify that the SecureLock
™
cord you purchased meets your needs.

The cords' female socket matches the power socket type (C14 or
C20) on your IT equipment.

The cord's male plug matches the outlet type (C13 or C19) on
your PDU.
2. Connect the SecureLock
™
cord between the IT equipment and your
PDU.

Plug the female socket end of the cord into the power socket of
the desired IT equipment.

Plug the male plug end of the cord into the appropriate
SecureLock
™
outlet on the PDU. Push the plug toward the outlet
until you hear the click, which indicates the plug's latches are
snapped into the latch slots of the outlet.
