Power problems—including blackouts, brownouts, power surges and line noise—can damage or destroy expensive Auido/Video equipment and degrade component performance.The AV550SC Backup Power Block provides the highest level of protection for structured cabling installations (ie. telephone, Internet and coax connections). With 550VA/300W of reliable battery backup, 4 widely-spaced AC outlets (2 auxiliary, 1 modem, 1 router), strong surge protection and advanced EMI/RFI line noise filtering, the AV550SC is a complete protection solution for audio/video distribution systems by supporting modems, routers, RF amplifiers, network interfaces, cameras, modulators and other equipment against all power problems. In the event of a power failure, the AV550SC includes an auto-restart feature that eliminates the need to perform an on-site restart. In addition, when a modem or router freeze-up occurs, the AV550SC uses a recycle/reset button with sequential outlet startup for proper modem and router rebooting. The AV550SC comes with a 2-year warranty.
UPS battery backup support allows you to work through short power failures and gives users time to save files and perform an orderly system shutdown in case of a prolonged blackout. The AV550SC’s internal battery provides 10 minutes of battery support for a half load (150 watts) and 3 minutes for a full load (300 watts). During normal operation, incoming utility power keeps the UPS battery fully charged so that backup power will always be available when needed.
A sudden power surge or spike on an AC, phone or network line can damage or destroy electronic components and wipe out irreplaceable data. The AV550SC’s high 1038-joule surge suppression rating protects connected components and data from the harmful effects of power surges. One set of tel/DSL (RJ11) jacks with included cable protect a standard dialup/DSL phone connection, and one set of HD-compatible coaxial jacks protect high definition video sources from dataline surges.
Various electromagnetic and radio sources can cause disruptive interference on the AC line. This line noise is a common cause of incremental hardware damage, data corruption and audio/video performance problems. The AV550SC incorporates advanced technology that filters out disruptive line noise, preventing it from affecting your equipment.
The AV550SC comes backed by a 2-year warranty. The AV550SC is also manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS guidelines to minimize the use of hazardous materials, and its replaceable internal battery is 100% recyclable.
