DJI Dock 3 + 25 ft 14/3 Gauge Power Extension Cord (for DJI Dock)

DJI Dock 3 + 25 ft 14/3 Gauge Power Extension Cord: Reliable AC Power Reach for Fixed Dock Installations

The DJI Dock 3 and 25 ft 14/3 Gauge Power Extension Cord bundle pairs DJI's third-generation drone-in-a-box enclosure with a heavy-duty AC extension cable designed to give fixed dock installations the power delivery range their sites actually require.

The Dock 3 demands a stable AC input of 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz with a minimum output power of 1,000 W — and the placement of a distribution box or outlet relative to the installation site does not always fall within the dock's factory cable reach.

The 25 ft (7.62 m), 14/3 gauge three-conductor extension cord bridges that gap with a grounded, heavy-duty configuration that supports consistent energy transmission in demanding outdoor environments.

Key Features and Benefits

• Bundle includes: DJI Dock 3 enclosure and one 25 ft 14/3 gauge AC extension cord.
• 25 ft reach: extends AC power delivery to dock placement sites beyond direct outlet range.
• 14/3 gauge wiring: three-conductor grounded configuration exceeds the 16 AWG minimum power cable spec.
• Heavy-duty insulation: built for continuous use in demanding outdoor installation environments.
• Grounded three-conductor design: supports safe and stable AC power delivery to dock systems.
• IP56 dock: dust and water resistance rated for permanent outdoor deployment in harsh conditions.
• 27-minute charge: Matrice 4D Series battery recharged from 15% to 95% for rapid mission turnaround.
• Backup battery: 12 Ah lead-acid UPS provides more than 4 hours of dock operation after power loss.
• Compressor-based AC: active heating and cooling maintains aircraft readiness from -22°F to 122°F.
• FlightHub 2 integration: cloud-based mission scheduling, live view, RTK calibration, and fleet management.

The Dock 3 itself is an IP56-rated autonomous system built for 24/7 unattended operation. Its compressor-based air conditioning maintains aircraft readiness across an operating temperature range of -22°F to 122°F (-30°C to 50°C), its onboard backup battery sustains dock operation for more than 4 hours after a power outage, and its 27-minute charge cycle returns the Matrice 4D or Matrice 4TD from 15% to 95% battery between automated missions.

All of that depends on a stable, correctly rated AC supply. Pairing the dock with a properly gauged extension cord at the point of installation removes one of the most common infrastructure variables that causes automated operations to fall short of their potential.

Power Infrastructure That Supports Dock Uptime

Automated dock operations are only as reliable as the power supply feeding them. The Dock 3's compressor-based air conditioning, aircraft charging, onboard sensors, and network connectivity all draw from the same AC input, and a marginal or interrupted supply degrades all of them simultaneously.

The 14/3 gauge configuration of this extension cord carries more conductor cross-section than the 16 AWG minimum the Dock 3 installation manual specifies for cable runs under 328 ft (100 m), giving fixed installations a power delivery margin that supports consistent dock performance over long deployment cycles.

For operators establishing permanent fixed installations on rooftops, open ground, or near communication towers where the outlet position is fixed and the dock placement is determined by GNSS signal quality and obstacle clearance requirements, the 25 ft reach resolves the distance between those two constraints without improvised wiring.

Compatibility and System Integration

• DJI Dock 3: compatible dock enclosure; requires 100 to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz, minimum 1,000 W input power.
• 25 ft 14/3 gauge extension cord: third-party AC extension cable, not an official DJI component.
• DJI Matrice 4D: compatible dock aircraft with 20 MP wide-angle, 48 MP medium tele, and 48 MP tele cameras (sold separately).
• DJI Matrice 4TD: compatible dock aircraft adding 640 x 512 thermal camera and NIR auxiliary light (sold separately).
• DJI FlightHub 2: cloud platform for automated mission management, live view, and RTK calibration (sold separately).
• DJI Cellular Dongle 2: optional 4G connectivity for dock and aircraft when Ethernet is unavailable (sold separately).
• D-RTK 3 Relay Fixed Deployment Version: extends GNSS and video transmission for tower or building installations (sold separately).
• DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise: pairs with Matrice 4D/4TD for standalone use or Controller B site commissioning (sold separately).
• AL1 Spotlight: 32 W, IP55, 4.3 lux at 328 ft (100 m), compatible with Matrice 4D/4TD for nighttime support (sold separately).
• AS1 Speaker: 15 W, IP55, 984 ft (300 m) broadcast range, compatible with Matrice 4D/4TD (sold separately).

Applications and Use Cases

• Fixed rooftop installations: extension cord bridges outlet-to-dock distance on building roof deployments.
• Open field installations: supports dock placement optimized for GNSS signal quality over outlet proximity.
• Tower-adjacent deployments: provides power reach when dock is mounted near communication infrastructure.
• Power line inspection: supports dock installations along transmission corridors far from distribution panels.
• Security and perimeter patrol: maintains dock uptime for scheduled automated patrol missions.
• Public safety operations: ensures consistent AC supply for rapid-response dock configurations.
• Multi-dock installations: provides individual power routing flexibility when deploying multiple dock units.
• Emergency staging: supports temporary fixed dock deployments where outlet proximity is variable.

Automated drone operations depend on reliable infrastructure at every layer, and power delivery is the foundation. This bundle pairs the Dock 3 with the extension cord it needs to be placed where site conditions demand, not just where the nearest outlet happens to be.
