Overview Details Customer Reviews Category Info Our take on the Panamax MD2-C by Steve Kindig The compact MD2-C plugs right into a standard AC wall outlet and provides reliable protection for two components. Run your TV's cable or antenna feed through the MD2-C's coaxial jacks to fully protect your television or DVR. The two AC outlets are placed on the sides to allow space-saving connections that let you move your furniture closer to the wall. The MD2-C protects your gear without compromising performance — in fact, it may even improve it thanks to Panamax' proven noise filtering circuitry. And its wide frequency range lets it easily pass high-definition cable TV signals.

Crutchfield Customer Review The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order. I purchased quite a few of these individual outlet surge suppressors for equipment AND cable. I am very happy with the Panamax brand and can feel safe and comfortable knowing that these suppressors will do their job in protecting my equipment. I learned the hard way by losing over $5,000 worth of equipment due to severe lightning strikes. The equipment I lost was all the equipment I never had surge suppressors on, so take my loss as a lesson, and get protected, ESPECIALLY if you life in Florida... the lightning capital of the world. I am also very happy with the service I received from Crutchfield. HIGHLY recommended. Was this review helpful?
