{"product_id":"wireworld-matrix-2-us-shielded-power-cord-extender","title":"Wireworld - Matrix 2-US Shielded Power Cord Extender","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA shielded, star-wired outlet block fed by a detachable IEC inlet — so one good power cord can serve components whose own cables are captive. Passive: no filtering, no surge protection, no circuitry.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe problem this solves is specific. You buy a good power cord, and then discover that half your equipment has a captive mains lead moulded into the chassis with nowhere to plug the cord in. The Matrix takes an IEC inlet on one end, so any Wireworld cord plugs into it, and presents a bank of ordinary outlets on the other. Your captive-cable components plug into those, and the cord you bought is now doing something for them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside it is OFC star wiring — each outlet fed from a common point rather than daisy-chained from the one before it, so no outlet sits downstream of another’s current draw — in a shielded and grounded aluminium chassis. Rack mounting brackets are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe clear about what it is not. There is no filtering, no surge protection, no MOV, no breaker and no active circuitry of any kind published anywhere for this product, by Wireworld or by any dealer. It is a passive distribution block in a shielded case. If you want surge protection, this is not it and you should buy something that is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a current Wireworld product, not a retired one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne honesty note on the specification. Wireworld’s own page does not state the outlet count, the current rating or the dimensions. Several independent dealers consistently describe six NEMA 5-15 outlets and give dimensions around 17-5\/8 by 2-1\/2 by 1-3\/4 inches for rack fitting — that agreement across sources is worth something, but it is dealer information rather than Wireworld’s, and we have labelled it that way below. Ask us and we will count the outlets on the one in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetachable IEC inlet — feed it with any Wireworld power cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtends a good power cord to components with captive, non-removable mains leads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOFC star wiring — every outlet fed from a common point, not daisy-chained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShielded and grounded aluminium chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRack mounting brackets included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassive: no filtering, no surge protection, no active circuitry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Passive shielded AC outlet block and power cord extender\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it is for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Letting a single good power cord serve components whose own mains cables are captive and cannot be replaced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower input:\u003c\/strong\u003e Detachable IEC 320 male inlet.

Wireworld is headquartered in Davie, Florida, but we could find no Made in USA claim for the cables themselves anywhere on their site — the only manufacturing statement we found concerns packaging, which they say is printed in the US.

That is essentially the whole published policy — there is no itemised exclusions list, no claims procedure and no statement about transferability, though the phrase “to the original purchaser” implies it does not transfer. Proof of purchase from an authorised dealer is required, and Wireworld asks you to go through that dealer first.
