Rack-mountable black uninterruptible power supply unit

752105247

Panamax's MB1000 Uninterruptable Power Supply unit provides battery backup power to up to eight outlets in the event of power loss due to voltage fluctuations. The MB1000 also offers voltage regulation, surge protection, and LiFT noise filtration. Dual learning IR outputs can be used to safely power-off video projectors.

Critical protection for critical components

All of your home A/V and electronics components are major investments. While these devices are designed for years of operation, they are susceptible to significant damage as a result of fluctuations in their power source. In addition to physical damage, some devices — like media servers, computers, or receivers — can lose setup configurations or stored data as a result of dramatic power variations. The MB1000 Uninterruptible Power Supply unit from Panamax is designed to prevent critical equipment from losing data in the event of a power surge or power loss by maintaining that equipment's power supply with its built-in battery reserves. The MB1000 features two outlet banks, each with four battery-powered outlets with surge protection and Automatic Voltage Regulation. Because Outlet Bank 1 houses the primary, critical-load outlets, the four non-critical-load outlets in Bank 2 will shutoff when the MB1000's batteries drain to a designated level, conserving power for Bank 1's critical-load devices.

"Cool" feature

For safe operation of video projectors, Panamax has designed the MB1000 with IR control capacity. Use up to two IR flashers (sold separately) to safely power-off projection equipment, allowing sufficient time for projector bulbs to complete proper cool-down cycles before fully shutting off. The MB1000 features dual learning IR output controls.

Hey, keep the noise down

Especially when powering audio equipment, the integrity of the power signal is directly correlated with the fidelity of the ultimate audio you hear. The cleaner the power, the cleaner the sound. Panamax's MB1000 features built-in LiFT noise filtration, ensuring that only clean, high-integrity power reaches your components.

System status is . . .

The Panamax MB1000 makes it easy to keep abreast of your system's operational status. Front and rear indicator lights tell you which outlet bank is switched on, warn you of wiring problems on your connected component, and the status of the IR output jacks. Further, a front-panel LCD display shows you system status and menu navigation items.

Connectivity and programming

For easy connection to your computer for programming purposes, the Panamax MB1000 sports an RS-232 serial communication port and a USB port. Both an RS-232 cable and a USB cable are included with purchase.
