Power cords are the last thing on your mind – until you misplace one or it malfunctions. Then the smooth running of your business is threatened and you wish you had a backup or at least a way to get a quick replacement.

That is where ShowMeCables can help. We recently expanded our line of AC and DC power cords to help you keep your critical functions operating. They are heavy duty and dependable for long life, and we keep them in-stock for same-day shipping. And we carry hundreds of types – not just standard replacement cords but models that can improve your installation, such as:

• Splitter power cords run two or three devices at once.
• Cords with angled connectors make sharp turns in tight spaces.
• Locking power cords stay tight under tension or vibration.

To make it easy to find the power cord you need, we have divided our vast inventory into the following sections:

Computer Power Cables

Whether you are a home user or running a data center, these are the cables you cannot live without. We have them in many types, lengths and colors. Most adhere to either NEMA or IEC standards, and they conform as well to RoHS, UL, WEEE, REACH and ISO 9001.

For instance, a 500-foot or 1,000-foot roll of Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a or Cat7 Ethernet cable can cost from 20% to 80% less than when it’s purchased in short segments. Also, with bulk Ethernet cable you can cut it to the exact lengths you need, which means shorter, more efficient connections and less wasted product.

Quicker maintenance. Eliminating the mess of excess cable also makes it easier to install, remove or re-route cords and to troubleshoot wiring problems. Faulty connections are easier to find in a well-ordered installation, which means les

Whether your company’s data center is a big room or a small closet, it will be more functional if it is well organized. At ShowMeCables we are passionate about well-ordered data centers. Many of our 15,000+ products exist to make your job easier by organizing your IT equipment.

The two main types of these products are equipment organizers and cable organizers.

Equipment Organizers

The best way to organize and protect your electronic components is to put them in either floor-mounted racks or wall-mounted racks.

Floor-Mounted Racks

Most companies install their servers and related IT equipment together in floor-mounted racks, aka server racks, which hold not only computer servers but patch panels, network switches, power distribution units and other components related to the network. They are floor-mounted on feet or on wheels, and some have a wall-securing option. They offer up to 45U of vertical capacity and depths of up to 42 inches.

Floor-mounted server racks offer four big benefits.
