Product Overview: The Monster
Power Home Theatre In-Wall Power Center provides "Clean Power" and surge
protection for flat screen TVs and projectors. It is designed to be installed
in-wall, behind a wall-mounted flat screen TV. This unit is designed for 15-amp
systems, and can be used for existing construction or new construction.
Monster Clean Power Stage 1 v.2.0:
Unfiltered AC power is filled with noise, surges, and spikes that can degrade
the overall performance of flat screen and projection TVs. This Monster Power
Center incorporates Monster Clean Power Stage 1 circuitry, which filters AC
power line noise, making it ideal for home theater systems.
Grounding Plate: A 24-carat
gold plated grounding plate is included to provide a single grounding point to
eliminate noise and hum.
Modules: The modules included
with the Power Center include:
- Clean Power/Surge Suppression
Module: This module features patented Monster Clean Power Stage 1 v.2.0
to reduce interference coming through the AC power line. It has 3 diagnostic
indicator lights (Clean Power On, Protection On, and Ground OK), and Alarm
Off and Display Off switches. The module offers 1260 joules of surge
protection and 50-Amp peak current capacity.
- Two-outlet AC Receptacle:
This 15A-rated duplex outlet gives you receptacles for two components. It
has an isolated ground to safeguard your system from over voltages and
spikes.
- Triple Coaxial Connection
(with Pass-Thru): This module has 3 SurgeGuard-protected 2.0 GHz coaxial
connections for protecting satellite TV, TV/Cable, Cable modem, or other
in-wall coax connections. The connections are mounted off-center to allow
for a cable pass-through area for neatly feeding through other A/V cables,
such as HDMI, DVI, Component Video, S-Video or Composite Video or Audio
cables. The pass-through area is covered by stiff, nylon bristles to hold
the cable and cover the gaps.
- Blank Decora Plate: A
blank, white Decora plate is used whenever the other inserts are not needed.
Power Cable: A 2-1/2' High
Current IEC Powerline 200 AC power cable is provided to connect the TV to the
In-Wall Power Center. This high-density, double-shielded AC power cord is
specifically designed to maximize power transfer. The low-profile 3-pronged plug
is designed to protrude only about 5/8" from the wall when plugged in.
