19-04-2016

Scolmore’s innovative IEC Lock+ Rewirable connector has been shortlisted for the 2016 DCS (Data Centre Solution) Awards in the Cabling Product of the Year category. 

Added to the company’s IEC LOCK range at the end of 2015 – the IEC Lock+ Rewireable is the world’s first locking rewireable C13 IEC connector.

Designed to guard against accidental disconnection of computers, PDU’s servers and most network devices, the new IEC Lock+ Rewirable adds additional flexibility and ease of use, as well as LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) compatibility, to its list of features.

The beautifully straightforward high-visibility locking mechanism is combined with a simple release mechanism which allows for disconnection from all sides. Ideal as a retrofit solution, it requires no other equipment or special inlets to secure it, it is simply plugged into an appliance as you would a standard IEC lead. The red cage release mechanism also marks the connector out from standard IEC leads to allow maintenance and other data centre staff to identify critical power sources.

The DCS awards are designed to reward the product designers, manufacturers, suppliers and providers operating in data centre arena. The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony due to take place on Thursday, 12^th May 2016 at the Grange St Paul’s Hotel in London.
