suppressors. Further, our cable and satellite suppressors are TIVO friendly as well as HD-Digital Television ready. Both DC carrier signals as well as high bandwidth signals can pass through our circuit. In fact the bandwidth is less than 0.1dB loss at 1GHz!

To connect your cabling to these in-line protectors, simply follow the in and out indications marked next to the Telco, and Cable / Satellite connectors.

Note:

It is not possible to make an in-line cable / satellite protector “maintenance-free” as we have accomplished with the 120 VAC line. This would necessitate limited signal bandwidth that would not allow the signal to pass. Under extreme conditions, it is possible that the surge suppression in one of these devices could sacriﬁ ce itself after a catastrophic event. If the telephone, cable or satellite signal will no longer pass through our protector, please send your Power Station to Furman for servicing. To test this, simply disconnect the incoming and out going cable from the PST-8. Connect the incoming connector to the component that formerly received the out going connector, thus by-passing the in-line protection. If the signal is present (but not when used with the PST-8) then the protection circuit is damaged (assuming it worked properly before the storm or catastrophic event).

If the PST-8 is connected to an AC outlet where sufﬁ cient voltage is present, the unit should operate properly with the protection OK

PST-8 specifications

The Furman Sound PST-8 is a premier power management solution designed to protect and enhance the performance of audio equipment in professional and home environments. Custom-built for audio applications, the PST-8 provides not only power conditioning but also surge protection, making it an essential tool for any serious entertainer or audio enthusiast.

One of the standout features of the PST-8 is its advanced power conditioning technology. It employs a linear filter that eliminates RF and electromagnetic interference, ensuring clean power reaches connected devices. This results in improved audio clarity, reduced noise, and more reliable overall performance, which are critical for achieving high fidelity sound.

Surge protection is another key aspect of the PST-8. It includes a robust surge suppression system capable of protecting sensitive equipment from voltage spikes that can occur during power surges or lightning strikes. This protection is essential for maintaining the longevity of audio gear, as such spikes can cause irreversible damage. The PST-8 also features a built-in circuit breaker, offering an additional layer of safety.

The design of the PST-8 is compact and rugged, essential for both road use and static setups. Its metal chassis provides durability, while its streamlined layout ensures it fits seamlessly into any rack or studio environment. The unit is equipped with eight outlets, allowing multiple devices to be connected simultaneously, along with an easily accessible power switch.

Additionally, the Furman PST-8 includes a front-panel LED indicator that displays the operational status of the power. This feature enhances user-friendliness, enabling quick checks on whether the unit is functioning optimally. Furthermore, the product's internal components are designed to dissipate heat efficiently, thus prolonging the lifespan of both the PST-8 and the equipment it serves.

In summary, the Furman Sound PST-8 is a vital component for anyone looking to protect and optimize their audio equipment. With its advanced power conditioning, effective surge protection, and rugged design, it stands out as a reliable solution for both professional and amateur audio setups. Its combination of features ensures that users can focus on their sound, confident that their equipment is safeguarded against the unpredictable nature of electrical supply. Overall, the PST-8 demonstrates Furman Sound’s commitment to quality and performance in audio management solutions.
