Description
This one-meter XT30 female pigtail provides a prepared DC lead for compatible 12V Bitcoin miners. It is designed for integration with a regulated screw-terminal supply and a correctly protected DC distribution system; it is not for direct connection to AC mains.
XT30 Female Pigtail Specifications
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| DC connector | XT30 female |
| Polarity | Red V+ and black V− as shown in the manufacturer drawing |
| Cable | UL2464 two-conductor round cable, 16 AWG |
| Length | 1000 ± 20 mm |
| Lead preparation | Red and black conductors, stripped and tinned approximately 5 ± 1 mm |
| Application | Nominal 12V DC miner branch from a compatible regulated supply |
Compatible 12V XT30 Bitcoin Miners
| Miner | Compatibility note |
|---|---|
| Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo 801 | 12V XT30 input; verify polarity, power-supply capacity, and cable temperature at the intended settings. |
| NerdQaxe++ Revision 7 | 12V XT30 input. Higher tuning levels can require substantially more power than stock operation. |
| Bitaxe Naja Duo 1201 | 12V XT30 input; size the entire branch for the miner’s configured load and cooling. |
| Bitaxe Turbo Touch | 12V XT30 input. This pigtail is useful only when building a separate compatible DC supply harness. |
Not for 5V barrel-input miners: do not use this cable with the Bitaxe Gamma 602, Gamma Duo 650, Nerdaxe Gamma, or Bitaxe Supra. XT30 shape alone does not define safe voltage or polarity.
Compatible Power Supplies
- Mean Well LRS-350-12 348W 12V power supply for an appropriately sized single- or multi-miner 12V system.
- Mean Well LRS-600-12 600W 12V power supply for engineered high-current distribution with individual protected branches.
The 12.4V 10A external XT30 power supply already includes an XT30 output and normally does not require this pigtail.
Safe DC Harness Installation
- Disconnect AC input and prove the supply is de-energized.
- Set and meter the DC output before connecting a miner.
- Verify XT30 polarity at the connector; never rely on wire color alone.
- Use secure terminals sized for 16 AWG and the supply terminal block.
- Protect each miner branch with a correctly sized fuse or breaker near the source.
- Provide strain relief and keep the connector clear of metal surfaces and fan blades.
- Begin at stock settings, then monitor voltage drop, connector temperature, power draw, and miner stability under sustained load.
Do not derive a safe continuous current from wire gauge alone. Connector quality, termination, cable length, ambient temperature, bundling, PSU rating, and miner load all affect the safe system limit.
