Overview
The Tripp Lite TLM526USBB is a Protect It! surge protector and power strip with five NEMA 5-15R AC outlets and two USB-A charging ports. It combines 450-joule AC surge suppression with a metal housing, EMI/RFI noise filtering and a 6-foot power cord for desktop, workstation and equipment-area installations.
AC Power and Surge Protection
The five AC outlets provide 120V power for compatible computers, peripherals, home theater equipment, networking devices and other electronics. The unit provides 450 joules of surge absorption and protects hot-neutral, neutral-ground and hot-ground paths. A 15A circuit breaker provides overload protection, while the illuminated power switch controls the connected AC outlets.
USB-A Charging
Two USB-A charging ports are provided for compatible mobile devices. The USB charging output is shared between the two ports with a combined 3.4A available; the total charging current is allocated between the ports according to the connected devices and their charging requirements. The USB ports are intended for charging phones, tablets and other compatible USB devices rather than AC power distribution.
Construction and Mounting
The TLM526USBB uses a black metal housing and includes keyhole mounting slots on the bottom panel for wall or desk mounting. Its 6-foot cord terminates in a NEMA 5-15P plug, allowing the surge protector to be positioned away from the nearest AC receptacle.
Key Features
- Five NEMA 5-15R AC outlets
- Two USB-A charging ports with 3.4A total shared output
- 450-joule AC surge suppression
- 15A circuit breaker and illuminated power switch
- Metal housing with integrated keyhole mounting slots
Applications
The TLM526USBB can be used at computer workstations, home entertainment areas, office desks, retail workstations and equipment areas where AC surge protection and convenient USB-A charging are required from one power unit.
DC Supplies Product Note
The two USB-A ports provide a combined 3.4A charging capacity rather than 3.4A per port. When both ports are used simultaneously, the available USB charging current is shared between the connected devices.
