Power supply 230VAC PC 500W TFX

ATX is the most common form factor standard for motherboards and power supplies, introduced by Intel to enhance cable management and airflow.

Standard Details

It defines the placement of mounting holes, the rear I/O panel, and power connectors for broad interoperability.

Advantages

Provides superior cooling, easier expansion via multiple PCIe slots, and efficient power management.

Note: Ensure your PC chassis supports the 12-inch standard width before installation.

• Hard drives (IDE, SCSI and SATA)
• Units diskettes (3.5 'and 5.25 ")
• Optical drives (CD, DVD and Blu-Ray)
• Video cards (PCI-e plates, PCI and AGP)
• Cooling systems (air and liquid)
• Modding circuits (LEDs, light pipes, etc.)
• Naturally, there are two types of Molex connectors, a male connector and a female connector. Plugs are used to branch outlets and split them into two but most of the time are integrated into the PCB peripherals.

The IEC 60320 standard defines an international set of non-locking appliance couplers for connecting power supply cords to electrical equipment up to 250 V.

The specification ensures electrical and mechanical interchangeability across a wide range of devices. Connectors are designated by even and odd numbers, where odd numbers (C7, C13, C19) refer to the female connector and even numbers (C8, C14, C20) to the male appliance inlet.

Widespread adoption of this standard has enabled global hardware manufacturing efficiency, allowing a single power supply unit to work worldwide by simply swapping the localized cord. In modern data center architectures, the shift toward C19/C20 standards is vital to handle the increased power density of high-performance servers.

Key Features
