Product Features
  • Surge Protection
    Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage.

  • EMI/RFI Noise Filter
    Maintains clean power for connected equipment by filtering out electromagnetic and radio frequency interference to improve picture and sound quality.
  • Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) Technology
    Allows normal current to pass through the device, while diverting any surge/spikes through the ground circuit, to safeguard connected electronics and the surge suppressor.
  • LED Indicators
    Light to indicate the model’s status: Protected and Grounded.
  • Transformer-Spaced Outlets
    Accommodate transformer-based plugs without compromising the access of other outlets.
  • Cord Management System

Why Do I Need A Surge Protector?

Utility power supplied to electrical outlets is sometimes inconsistent. The short-duration voltage surges or spikes that occasionally happen can damage components in electronic devices such as computers and workstations. In addition to equipment damage, irretrievable data loss may occur. In the U.S., the nominal or standard voltage supplied to household and office wiring is 120 volts. A voltage surge or spike can cause electronic components to overheat, either immediately destroying them or causing permanent damage that can lead to premature failure.

A surge protector or surge suppressor provides protection against power surges. This device is located in the power circuit between the utility power outlet and the connected electronic equipment. Surge protectors work by diverting excess voltage to the ground, allowing only the nominal voltage to travel through the wiring to connected devices. This is accomplished using a variable resistance component in the surge protector called a metal oxide varistor (MOV). Under normal voltage conditions, the resistance of the MOV is such that it remains closed. As utility voltage increases beyond nominal, the MOV resistance decreases accordingly which forces the unwanted overvoltage to ground, maintaining a constant flow of nominal voltage to sensitive electronic equipment.

Registered Jacks

A registered jack (RJ) consists of the jack construction and wiring pattern of a standardized physical network interface to connect telecommunications or data equipment to a service provided by local exchange carrier or long distance carrier. Many CyberPower surge protectors feature data protection for RJ-11 (standard phone lines) and RJ-45 (Ethernet).

RJ-11 (RJ11): A telephone interface, a RJ-11 (registered jack-11), also known as RJ11, uses a cable of twisted wire pairs and a modular jack with two, four, or six contacts. A four-wire RJ-11 connector (6P4C) plugs a telephone into the wall and the handset into the telephone. A six-wire RJ-11 (6P6C) connector is commonly used with three telephone lines.

RJ-45 (RJ45): A data networking interface, the eight-wire RJ-45 (registered jack-45), also known as RJ45, uses a cable of twisted wire pairs and an 8-pin modular jack. RJ-45 connectors are typically used with Ethernet and Type 3 Token Ring networks.

If my surge protector has a ground light, should it be illuminated (green)?

Yes. The ground indicator light should be illuminated. If the light is not illuminated, there is a problem with the AC outlet into which the CyberPower surge suppressor is plugged. If this is the case, please disconnect the surge suppressor until the problem is resolved. The problem must be resolved before the CyberPower surge suppressor can be used.

Common issues with an AC outlet include: bad ground, missed ground, or reversed wiring (usually due to sub-standard wiring, typical in residential housing built prior to 1980). You may need to contact a qualified electrician to repair/upgrade the outlet.

NOTE: Using the CyberPower surge suppressor when the ground indicator light is not illuminated will void the warranty.

If my surge protector has a surge light, should it be illuminated?

Yes. The surge light should be illuminated. This indicates that the CyberPower surge suppressor is functioning properly. If the light is not illuminated, it indicates that the surge protector has received a catastrophic surge and will need to be replaced. CyberPower will replace the surge suppressor free of charge, provided the warranty terms and conditions are met.

How do I correctly use the IN and OUT jacks for RJ11/45 phone/network ports?

To correctly use the IN and OUT jacks for the RJ11/45 phone/network ports:

  • Connect the cord from your wall to the IN jack. NOTE: For some surge suppressors, the IN jack might show the icon of a phone.
  • Connect your computer or peripheral to the OUT jack. NOTE: For some surge suppressors, the OUT jack might show the icon of a computer.

What types of electronics are intended to be plugged into transformer outlets?

The transformer outlets are spaced farther apart than the other outlets to accommodate transformer block adapters or any other adapters that are large in size. Transformer outlets can be used to connect any appropriate device to the surge suppressor.

What is a button or keyhole mount?

Button or keyhole mounting is a toolless feature designed to speed up the installation process of vertically mounting power distribution units (PDU) and cable management ducts in a rack. The button mounts are installed on the back of equipment prior to installation, while the keyhole mounting points can be found alongside the rack.

Is this for indoor or outdoor use?

Indoor use only.

Can I plug another surge protector or power strip into this unit?

Not recommended.

What is Safe-Fail?

This feature cuts power to connected equipment when the surge protector can no longer provide protection – keeping your electronics safe.

Does this surge protector support products with 220V?

No, it’s designed for 125V.

Is this surge protector UL certified?

Yes.
