HE ENERGY-EFFICIENT
Get the power you need and the low electric bill you want with Antec’s EarthWatts 350 Green! One of
the most environmentally friendly power supplies on the planet, the EA-350 Green delivers 350 watts of
reliable, continuous power while meeting the Bronze level of performance from 80 PLUS®, the most
widely recognized independent standard in power supply efficiency.

TANDARDS AND FEATURES
The EA-350 Green PSU is compatible with ATX12V v2.32 and EPS12V v2.91 specifications. This PSU
features Universal Input, which automatically senses when you connect the power supply to any AC
power source between 100 ~ 240V, eliminating the need to set a voltage switch. The EA-350 Green also
features Active Power Factor Correction (Active PFC), which improves the power factor value of the PSU
by altering the input current wave shape, helping to transmit energy across the grid.
S
YSTEM PROTECTION
A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: OCP (Over Current
Protection), OVP (Over Voltage Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), OPP (Over Power Protection)
and OTP (Over Temperature Protection). Sometimes the PSU will “latch” into a protected shutdown state.
This means that you will need to power off the PSU and clear the fault before it will function again. There
are no user-replaceable fuses in your EA-350 Green.

PSU
80 PLUS® B
80 PLUS® Bronze certification is among the highest
independent standards in power supply efficiency. This
allows the PSU to use less energy and generate less heat
so it stays cooler, runs more quietly, and lasts longer. The
EA-350 Green has been certified to be at least 82%
efficient at a wide range of operating loads and will
lower your operating costs while protecting the
environment.

Power Connectors
Description
+12V Rail
UAL
+12 V
The EA-350 Green PSU uses dual +12 volt power rails. Different connectors are hooked up to separate
circuits to aid in the balanced distribution of power between devices in your computer. The +12V rails
have been assigned to different connectors, as shown in Table 2, to prevent voltage sags in one device
due to sudden demands for power by another device.
