Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing APC’s C3 Power Filter, shown in Figure 1. The power filter comes in two models. The C3 is silver and the C3BLK is black. However, the C3 and C3BLK have the same performance, features and functionality.

The C3/C3BLK Power Filter will protect your high performance audio and video (AV) system from damage caused by power surges, spikes and lightning. Protection is guaranteed.

Isolated noise filter bank (INFB) technology eliminates electromagnetic interference and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) as sources of audio and video signal degradation.

Data line surge protection jacks stop surges from traveling over phone and ethernet lines. Digital Satellite System (DSS), cable modem (CM), and cable television (CATV) coaxial cable lines are equally protected. With APC, your entire home entertainment experience is protected from damage that might result from bad power conditions.
