Product Overview
ZeroSurge USB and Computer Electrical Surge Protection
Manufactured by ZeroSurge the Model 6R15W-4USB is a great 6 regular outlet solution for protecting all plus 4 USB power devices like cell phones, battery chargers, and cameras. An electrical surge, often referred to as a power surge or transient voltage, is a sudden and brief increase in the electrical voltage within an electrical system. This surge can stem from various sources, such as lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or the operation of high-powered equipment. Electrical surges can be highly detrimental to electronics due to their ability to exceed the designed voltage limits of sensitive components. These voltage spikes can cause immediate damage or degrade the internal circuitry of electronic devices, resulting in malfunctions, data loss, or even complete equipment failure. Additionally, while surges can be brief, their impact can be long-lasting, reducing the lifespan of electronics and leading to costly repairs or replacements. It's crucial to protect electronic devices from electrical surges using surge protectors to ensure their safe and uninterrupted operation.
Even a small electrical surge in power can have a significant impact on a network router or server's power supply due to its sensitivity to voltage fluctuations. Network routers are intricate electronic devices with delicate circuitry that processes and transmits data signals. A minor electrical surge can exceed the router's voltage tolerance, causing immediate damage to its internal components such as transistors, capacitors, or integrated circuits. These voltage irregularities can disrupt the router's operation, leading to connectivity issues, data corruption, or complete failure. Furthermore, the interconnected nature of network devices can cause the surge to propagate across the network, affecting other connected devices as well. To safeguard network routers and prevent downtime, it's crucial to employ surge protection devices that effectively suppress electrical surges and ensure the smooth functioning of network systems
