Overview
The Eaton Tripp Lite TLP128TTUSBB Protect It! is a 12-outlet surge protector designed to protect computers, networking equipment, home-office electronics and other compatible equipment from AC power surges, spikes and line noise. It combines twelve NEMA 5-15R outlets with 4320 joules of surge suppression, two USB-A charging ports, telephone/modem protection, coaxial protection, diagnostic LEDs and an 8-foot power cord.
AC Surge Protection
The TLP128TTUSBB provides 4320 joules of AC surge suppression and protects all three conductors used by a standard residential AC connection. Its protection circuitry covers full normal-mode protection between hot and neutral as well as common-mode protection between neutral-ground and hot-ground.
Outlets and Power Capacity
Twelve NEMA 5-15R AC outlets provide connections for compatible 120V equipment. Six outlets are positioned to accommodate bulky transformer-style plugs. The unit is rated for up to 15A and 1800W at 120V. An integrated 15A circuit breaker provides overload protection.
USB Charging
Two USB-A charging ports are provided for charging compatible mobile devices and other USB-powered equipment. The two USB ports share a total charging capacity of 2.1A. USB charging is separate from the twelve AC outlets and does not provide USB Power Delivery.
Telephone, Modem and Coaxial Protection
The TLP128TTUSBB includes surge protection for one telephone/DSL line and one coaxial line. These connections can help protect compatible telephone, fax, modem, cable and satellite equipment against surges entering through connected communication or coaxial wiring.
Noise Filtering and Status Monitoring
Integrated EMI/RFI filtering provides up to 40 dB of line-noise attenuation. Built-in diagnostic LEDs indicate whether surge protection is present and whether the connected AC receptacle is properly grounded.
Key Features
- 12 NEMA 5-15R AC outlets with six outlets designed for bulky transformer plugs
- 4320-joule AC surge suppression with normal-mode and common-mode protection
- Two USB-A charging ports sharing 2.1A total charging capacity
- Telephone/DSL and coaxial surge protection for compatible connected lines
- 8-foot SJT power cord with right-angle NEMA 5-15P plug and integrated 15A circuit breaker
Applications
The TLP128TTUSBB is suitable for workstation, home-office, networking and entertainment setups where multiple 120V electronic devices require centralized surge protection. Its additional telephone/DSL and coaxial protection makes it applicable to equipment installations using these communication or signal connections.
DC Supplies Product Note
The two USB-A ports share 2.1A rather than providing 2.1A independently to each port. When planning a device setup, the twelve AC outlets, USB charging capacity, and protected telephone/coaxial connections should therefore be considered as separate functions of the surge protector.
