These are C13-C14 cords, and are very frequently used between rack
PDUs and computer PSUs.
The other popular usage was back in the days when your computer PSU
would have a C14 socket to power your monitor; you'd use one of these
cables to plug your monitor's power directly into the back of the
computer's PSU.
Haven't seen that in nearly a decade, though.

I've got about 20 computer equipment power cords that have the

power supply connector on one end, and on the other, instead of a
regular 110V connector, it has what looks like the female end (just
like
the one ONE a Power Supply) connection. So, in theory, you could use
this as an extension cord, but what we've used 'em for is to connect
servers to power distribution panels within a rack that have the same
type of connector.
