Monster Cable MP HTS 5100 MKII 109097 Reference PowerCenter

Unrivaled Surge Protection

Monster has unveiled its newest model HTS 5100 PowerCenter: the HTS 5100 MKII Home Theater Reference PowerCenter. With Monster Clean Power Stage 4 noise isolation and filtering, the HTS 5100 MKII offers the highest level of component isolation and noise rejection for better picture and sound. And advanced Monster T2 and Tri-Mode protection technology provides unrivaled surge protection technology to help protect your valuable digital TV investments.

Extras That Go A Long Way

The HTS 5100MKII also sets itself apart with two easy-to-read digital LED meters with adjustable illumination for simultaneously monitoring performance-impairing power conditions; programmable outlets and external trigger control for sequenced power-on/off for enhanced component control and protection; and an extra-long 8 ft. PowerLine 300 Cable with large-gauge conductors, 24k gold contacts and advanced shielding for maximum power transfer and interference rejection.

Upgrades Of The MKII

New MKII features include a higher joule rating, Monster's patented, computer-controlled Monster T2 surge and voltage protection and surge-protected phone/network connections. All this, plus fire-resistant Monster MOVs to further absorb surges for increased safety and component protection, make this PowerCenter one of the world's safest and most advanced power management solutions available today.

Monster's Exclusive T2 Technology Explained

The Monster Power HTS 5100 MKII PowerCenter features exclusive Monster T2 technology. T2 is an active electronic microprocessor-controlled circuit that sits in front of the surge protection circuitry in select Monster Power products. T2 monitors the line, neutral and ground lines and automatically disconnects the PowerCenter from the AC power line when a long duration low-voltage sag or high-voltage swell occurs. When the voltage sags or swells to these potentially damaging levels, ultra-fast T2 auto-disconnect protection circuitry shuts down the Monster PowerCenter for 15 seconds. When the under-voltage or over-voltage condition returns to normal, T2 reconnects the PowerCenter to full operation after 15 seconds. If the fault condition does not clear, the T2 comparator circuit keeps the unit shut down. Unlike ordinary power management devices, T2 will shut down your PowerCenter before the MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors) and thermal fuses sense an overload condition and sacrifice itself to protect your connected components. This will extend the PowerCenter's life, while providing the system protection you need.

Monster's Patented Clean Power Stages

Monster Clean Power performs two tasks that are vital to maintaining optimum home theater performance: 1) noise filtration and 2) noise isolation. The higher the Clean Power stage number (1-5), the more sophisticated and advanced the filters are that reject noise generated on the AC powerline. In addition, the higher the Clean Power stage number, the more isolation that exists between connected equipment for maximum rejection of component-generated noise. Monster PowerCenters featuring Clean Power circuitry are each designed with a Clean Power Stage. The HTS 5100 MKII incorporates Monster Clean Power Stage 4 circuitry which filters both AC powerline noise and reduces noise generated by your connected equipment. Clean Power Stage 4 features four ultra-advanced, isolated filters that include analog audio, video and digital, plus an ultra-high current audio filter to provide for the best possible AC powerline noise rejection and inter-component isolation for improved component-generated noise rejection. All of these features make the HTS 5100 MKII ideal for your home theater system.
