Key Features

Automatic Over & Under Voltage
Protection
Panamax's patent pending power mon-
itoring circuitry constantly monitors
the AC line voltage for unsafe voltage
conditions such as momentary spikes,
prolonged over-voltages and under-
voltages (brownouts). These unsafe
conditions pose a very dangerous
threat to all electronic equipment with-
in the home. If the MAX® 4300-PM
senses an unsafe power condition, it
will automatically disconnect your
equipment from the power to protect
equipment from damage. Once the
voltage returns to a safe level, the
MAX® 4300-PM will automatically
reconnect the power.
• When subjected to a 6,000V (open
circuit voltage) / 500A (short circuit
current) surge, the MAX® 4300-PM
limits its voltage output to less than
330V peak, UL's best rating.
The MAX® 4300-PM will withstand,
without damage, 20,000 Ampere
surges, far exceeding the UL require-
ment of only 3,000 Ampere surges.
The MOV's are rated for a peak
impulse current of 60,000 Amperes,
which ensures the safety and durability
of the MAX 4300-PM's protection cir-
cuitry.
• If the magnitude of the surge is
greater than the capacity of the surge
protection components, the MAX®
4300-PM's Protect or Disconnect ™
Circuitry will disconnect your equip-
ment in order to protect it. The MAX®
4300-PM will need to be repaired or
replaced by Panamax if this occurs.

USB Charger:

MAX® 4300-PM features a front panel
convenience charger for mp3 players,
cell phones, and other small electron-
ics.

Gaming Outlet

MAX® 4300-PM features a conven-
ience outlet located on the front panel.
Perfect for gaming systems and other
electronics.
Front Panel Lights
2 switchable convenience lights to view
your media and home theater system
when it's dark.
Cable/sat/antenna signal protection
Coaxial protection circuits achieve opti-
mum signal quality from our new coax-
ial protectors that have the smallest
signal loss on the market - less than
0.5 db of attenuation from 0Hz to
2.2GHz.
Our upgraded coaxial protection has
been specifically designed to virtually
eliminate signal loss.
The clamping level of 75V will meet the
demands of both cable and satellite
voltage while minimizing exposure to
damaging spikes and surges.

Telephone Line Protection
Digital video recorders and satellite TV
receivers require a telephone line con-
nection for TV show scheduling and/or
Pay-Per-View services. The M4300-PM
provides telephone protection on one
set of RJ-11 jacks.
The telephone line protection circuitry
utilizes auto-resetting PTCRs and solid-
state SIDACtors for reliability and
unsurpassed protection. The clamping
level of the MAX 4300-PM's telephone
protector is 260 volts. This will allow
typical ring voltage (90-130VAC) and
operating battery voltage (-48DC) to
pass through the circuit and still pro-
tect the modem in your satellite receiv-
er from damage.
LAN Line Protection
Protection circuits for 10/100 baseT
Ethernet lines. Incoming LAN line
MUST be plugged into the LINE jack.
Patch cord to the equipment MUST be
plugged into the EQUIP jacks. 8 wire
protection, 50V clamping.
Isolated Banks
Linear EMI/RFI Noise Filtration with
Isolation Between Outlet Banks:
Your audio/video components are con-
stantly being bombarded by electro-
magnetic interference (EMI) and radio
frequency interference (RFI) through
their AC power source. This contami-
nated power can affect audio/video
equipment and will degrade the overall
performance of your entire system.
Common symptoms of contaminated
power include loss of picture detail,
dull colors, pops, hisses, hums and
visual artifacts.
The MAX® 4300-PM is designed to
eliminate noise contamination, supply
clean power to your system and pro-
vide noise isolation between the outlet
banks so that any noise created by A/V
components cannot contaminate the
power going to equipment plugged into
the other outlet banks of the MAX®
4300-PM.
Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT)
For improving picture and sound quali-
ty nothing filters AC noise better. LiFT
evenly eliminates noise across the
entire bandwidth, ensuring peak audio
and video performance by reducing
harmonic distortion and improving the
signal-to-noise ratio. With LiFT, you are
assured consistent performance and
the highest resolution from any audio
or video system.
CAUTION – Do not install this
device if there is not at least 10
meters (30 feet) or more of wire
between the electrical outlet and
electrical service panel.
