Eaton IBAR12-20T Isobar 12 Outlet 20A Rackmount Surge Protector
Overview
The Eaton IBAR12-20T Isobar 12-Outlet Surge Protector is engineered to deliver robust, network-grade power protection for sensitive electronic equipment in demanding IT and industrial environments. This device safeguards essential network workstations, telecom systems, point-of-sale equipment, and audio/video systems from damaging surges, spikes, and disruptive line noise. Its advanced design ensures the integrity and continuous operation of critical infrastructure by mitigating common electrical disturbances. Featuring 12 total outlets×two front NEMA 5-15R and ten rear NEMA 5-20R×the IBAR12-20T employs two exclusive isolated filter banks. This crucial isolation prevents interference between equipment connected to different banks, ensuring that noise generated by one device does not impact others. Internal components like large toroidal chokes, ferrite rod-core inductors, and multiple layers of metal oxide varistors actively remove EMI/RFI interference, preventing system crashes, data errors, and performance degradation. The surge protector covers all three power wires (hot line, neutral, ground), offering comprehensive protection in both normal and common modes. Designed for versatile deployment, the Eaton IBAR12-20T can be mounted in 1U of rack space, on a wall, or under a counter using the included hardware. An integrated 20-amp circuit breaker provides essential overload protection, automatically shutting down connected equipment if capacity is exceeded. Diagnostic LEDs offer immediate visual confirmation of power, protection status, and line faults. A lengthy 15-foot power cord with a secure, locking NEMA L5-20P plug ensures reliable connection to distant power sources, making it ideal for flexible placement within complex IT infrastructures.
