Big Home Theater Investments Need Big Protection
Home electronics cost a lot of money, so it's smart to protect that investment with a good surge protecting device. The very real danger of power surges can wipe out valuable information and systems, which means your home theater, computer, and other electronics are at risk. Instead of relying on low-tech power strips, use the single component MAX5300PM to eliminate power threats to your high performance AV system.
What Events Make Electronic Equipment Tremble?
One blip in your power can cause very costly situation. If there's a surge or even momentary outage, you could lose practically your entire home theater set-up. Your onscreen TV Guide may disappear, your DVR hard drive might be lost, and because the fan stops running to cool them, front projection bulbs can overheat and blow out. This applies to rear-projection lamps as well, such as DLP, LCD and LED projectors. Plus, all that invaluable programming the installer did will get wiped out and send you back to the factory presets, requiring another install. And, not only is home theater at risk, but so are music systems and computer hard drives. Let your home entertainment system rest with peace and not rest in peace with Panamax's MAX5300PM.
Clean Power Means Improved Picture And Sound Quality
Interference from other system power sources can damage picture and sound quality. Your New MAX5300PM features Clean Power Level 4+ power cleaning and filtration to eliminate the common symptoms of contaminated power (including loss of detail, pops, hisses, hums and visual artifacts) and to allow A/V equipment to perform up to its full capability.
This Powercenter Has Its Ducks In Order
With Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), your new MAX5300PM protects your equipment against prolonged over/under voltage. AVM circuitry continuously monitors the incoming power as displayed on the digital voltmeter. In case of an undervoltage or an overvoltage, a flashing lightning bolt will be displayed in red in the voltmeter, and power to the connected equipment is automatically turned off if either of these conditions is detected. When voltage returns to a safe level, power to the equipment is automatically reconnected. Protection against blown fuses damage to speakers is provided by power sequencing, which automatically powers outlets on and off in sequence.
A Little Connectivity Thrown In For Fun
The connectivity of your new MAX5300PM is enhanced by 2 high current outlets — serving high power demands like amps or subwoofers — a USB charger for mp3 players, cell phones and other small electronics and a front-panel LAN port for online gaming.
The Problem With Power
We live in the Information Age where countless data is created, transmitted, and stored. Numerous electric-powered machines aid in business and household tasks, as well as entertain and inform us. The reality of living in this time of technological innovation is that the power to run these machines can't keep up (at least not yet). In many locations around the world, electricity generation, transmission and distribution have not evolved at the same pace as computer and communications equipment. What was built years ago for powering factories producing manufactured goods is struggling to adapt to provide continuous, sufficient-grade power to sensitive electronics processing valuable information. Overcome this dangerous discrepancy with the MAX5300PM.
A Power Event, Defined
Sags, surges, noise, spikes, blackouts. . . what really happens to connected devices when they experience a power anomaly? A lightning strike is a frequent example, although it is just one of countless problems that can strike your equipment. Imagine lightning has just struck a nearby transformer. If the surge was powerful enough, it traveled instantaneously through wiring (AC, network, serial, phone lines and more) with the electrical equivalent force of a tidal wave. For PC users, the surge could have traveled into your computer via the AC outlet or phone lines. The first casualty is usually a modem or motherboard. Chips go next, and data is lost. Thankfully, you can prevent all that with one device — the MAX5300PM.
