IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation and
operation of all Tripp Lite Console Component Power Centers. Failure to heed these warnings will void
your warranty.
• The Console Component Power Center features an internal protection that will disconnect the surgeprotective component at the end of its useful life but will maintain power to the load—now unprotected.
• Do not connect the Console Component Power Center to an ungrounded outlet. Do not use with 2-wire
extension cords or adapters. Do not plug extension cords into the Console Component Power Center.
• The Console Component Power Center is designed for indoor use only. Install the Console Component
Power Center away from heat-emitting appliances such as radiators or heat registers. Do not install
where excessive moisture is present.
• Never install electrical, telephone, network or coaxial wiring during a lightning storm.
• Do not drill into any part of the housing or open the housing for any reason. There are no userserviceable parts inside.

Power Switch with Integrated Circuit Breaker: The switch turns power on and off at the outlets.
The circuit breaker integrated into the switch protects against dangerous system overload. If the total
load on the Console Component Power Center's outlets exceeds 12 amps, the circuit breaker will trip
and power will be turned off at all outlets. Reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Press the
switch/circuit breaker to the “OFF” position and then to the “ON” position to restore power.
“Protected” LED: indicates the surge suppression components are intact and providing complete
B
protection against surges. If this LED does not illuminate, some of the surge suppression components
are not functioning, and the unit should be replaced. Call Tripp Lite Customer Support at (773) 869-
1234.
“Grounded” LED: indicates wall outlet is grounded and surge protection can properly function. If
C
this light DOES NOT illuminate and power is present, consult a qualified electrician to examine your
outlet's wiring.
D
“Power” LED: indicates AC power is available at the wall outlet.
“Switched” LED: indicates that AC power is available at the Console Component Power Center's
E
outlets.

Features
“Current Usage” LED Meter: allows you to get the maximum use from your Console Component
F
Power Center by showing you the total amperage load of all of your connected components. A yellow
LED serves as a warning; a red LED indicates current usage is too high and action should be taken to
reduce the connected load.
“Input Voltage” LED Meter: clearly shows voltage variations of incoming utility power. A yellow
G
LED serves as a warning; red LEDs indicate voltages are outside of the nominal range (either too low
or too high). The Console Component Power Center can alert you to abnormal voltage, but cannot
regulate it. If persistent low or high voltage conditions continually affect equipment performance,
consider purchasing a Tripp Lite UPS system or line conditioner.
Front Panel Outlet: provides a convenient power source (with surge suppression and line noise
H
filtering) for devices not normally part of your component system, including game systems, video
recorders or battery chargers. Turn power on and off at this outlet with the “Master” Switch.
Rackmount Hardware: allows mounting in standard sized racks.
I
Removeable Console Feet: allow placement on a shelf as a console component within a
J
system. Unscrew feet prior to rackmounting the Console Component Power Center.

Line Cord with Right-Angle Plug: connects Console Component Power Center to a standard 3-wire
K
grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz. wall outlet. Right-angle plug allows equipment and
furniture to be moved flush against the wall.
Rear Panel Outlets: protect connected equipment against surge damage and line noise
L
distortion on the AC line. Turn power on and off at these outlets with the “Master” Switch.
1-Line Tel/Modem Protection: includes built-in jacks which protect connected equipment against
M
surge damage and line noise distortion on a single dial-up line. A built-in splitter (one jack in and two
jacks out) allows you to simultaneously protect and connect two devices sharing a single line.
3-Line High Definition (HD) Compatible Coaxial Protection: includes three sets of gold coaxial
N
“F” connectors that protect components on three DSS satellite, cable or antenna lines simultaneously.
Coaxial protection is compatible with all digital signals for High Definition (HD) video.
Not Shown
Unit/Cord Labels: coordinate Console Component Power Center outlets with component power
cords for easy identification.
Audible Alarm: immediately alerts you to damaged internal protection circuitry. If this occurs,
contact Tripp Lite Customer Support.
