StarTech.com Model PXT101NB3S3 3 ft. Standard Laptop Power Cord

The StarTech.com PXT101NB3S3 is a 3 ft. black laptop power cord with a North American NEMA 5-15 plug and an IEC 60320 C5 connector, suited to laptop users who need a compatible replacement cord or a little more reach to an outlet.

Recommended For

• Laptop owners replacing a lost or damaged detachable power cord, when their power adapter has a C6 inlet that fits this cord’s C5 connector.
• Home-office or workstation users who need a spare C5 power cord for a compatible laptop power brick and have an outlet within the cord’s 3-foot reach.
• Mobile professionals who carry a backup power cord for a compatible laptop adapter and want a separate, lightweight cord rather than replacing the whole adapter.
• People using a compatible C5-equipped laptop adapter in North America who want a cord with a standard NEMA 5-15 wall plug.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• If the AC cord for a compatible laptop power brick is lost or damaged, use this as a replacement between a North American wall outlet and the brick; it does not connect directly to the laptop.
• When an outlet is just out of reach of a laptop power brick, the 3-foot cord can provide a little extra reach between the outlet and the brick, though it may not be long enough for outlets farther away.
• For a mobile work setup, keep it as a spare in a laptop bag so a compatible power brick can be connected at another desk without bringing the original cord along.
• At a shared desk or home office, leave the cord at the workstation and connect it to a compatible laptop power brick when needed, reducing the need to pack and unpack that AC cord between work sessions.
