Protect your home audio investment with the MPC500 Power Controller. Featuring cascaded surge protection, the MPC500 delivers AC power line surge protection, such as from a lightning strike, as well as protecting low voltage devices against secondary surges and spikes that can occur after the initial event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAC power line protection is accomplished with the use of a thermally protected metal-oxide varistor (TPMOV) – which is far safer than a traditional MOV – that provides you with Line to Neutral protection. For secondary surge events, the MPC500 provides protection for your ethernet, coaxial, and other low voltage devices via Gas Discharge Tubes (GDT), Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistors and Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) components. Also included in the MPC500 is electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering of the AC line and over\/under voltage protection, which will switch off the rear receptacles to keep your connected devices safe from trying to operate at undesired voltage levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MPC500 includes either 8Type B1 (a.k.a. NEMA 5-15R) or 4 Type F1 (a.k.a. CEE 7\/3 or “Schuko”) receptacles; only the appropriate version is available in each individual country to ensure compatibility with local power systems. Control of each receptacle can be configured to your preferences via the rear panel Power Control ports or through the setup menus on the front panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front panel display can list input voltage, the amount of current being drawn through the receptacles, or total (apparent) power. Regardless of receptacle type, all versions of the MPC500 feature the timeless McIntosh black glass front panel, illuminated logo, control knobs, and aluminum end caps. Contact your local dealer to learn more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) As defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdetails id=\"specifications\" class=\"mc-accordion\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"mc-spec-body\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mc-spec-heading\"\u003eElectronic Specifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mc-spec-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mc-spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mc-spec-name\"\u003eLoad Regulation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mc-spec-value\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mc-spec-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mc-spec-name\"\u003eOutput Voltage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mc-spec-value\"\u003eWith Type B (a.k.a.
