PD-Connex CX14-5 - 5-meter Powerconnector TR IP65 to Schuko Power Cable
The PD-Connex CX14-5 is a professional power cable designed for maximum reliability and safety in the most demanding environments. Measuring 5 meters in length, this flexible cable features a standard Schuko connector on one end and an IP65-rated Powerconnector TR connector on the other. Its robust construction, with three 1.5 mm² conductors, makes it the ideal solution for powering audio, video, and lighting equipment in professional applications, both indoors and outdoors.
The main advantage of this cable is its Powerconnector TR connector, which not only features a quick and secure locking system to prevent accidental disconnections, but also offers IP65 certified protection. This guarantees complete dustproofing and high resistance to pressurized water jets, allowing for worry-free use at outdoor events, festivals, or installations exposed to harsh weather conditions. Its ability to handle a load of up to 16 amps ensures a stable and reliable power supply for a wide range of high-consumption devices.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the IP65 rating mean?
The IP (Ingress Protection) rating indicates the level of protection a device offers against the ingress of solids and liquids. The first digit, "6," means it is completely sealed against dust. The second digit, "5," indicates it is protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction, making it suitable for outdoor use and hose cleaning.
Is this connector compatible with Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connectors?
Although visually and functionally very similar, Powerconnector TR and Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 connectors are proprietary systems. Cross-brand compatibility is not guaranteed, so it is recommended to use connectors from the same family (PD-Connex with PD-Connex) to ensure a secure connection and compliance with the IP65 rating.
Can I connect several of these cables in a daisy chain?
This specific cable (CX14-5) is designed to connect a device to a power source (wall outlet). To interconnect equipment, you would need a cable with a Powerconnector TR output connector on one end and an input connector on the other, always respecting the total maximum load of the circuit.
