The Samson PBPRO series comprises three distinguished models: PBPRO7, PB9, and PS9. These power distribution units are engineered to provide robust performance and exceptional reliability, essential for both live sound applications and studio environments.

The PBPRO7 is well-known for its versatility, featuring seven outlets strategically positioned to accommodate a variety of equipment. It has a heavy-duty metal chassis designed for durability, and a rack-mountable format that fits seamlessly in standard 19-inch racks. The unit's power switch is equipped with a built-in circuit breaker for protection against overloads. Its LED power indicator provides real-time status, ensuring users are never in the dark about their power supply.

The PB9 takes things a step further with nine outlets, catering to those with expansive rig requirements. It boasts the same robust construction as the PBPRO7, maintaining the trend of reliability. The PB9 features a power conditioner that includes a noise filter, which minimizes electrical interference, making it ideal for sensitive audio gear. The unit also incorporates a front-mounted AC socket for easy access, proving advantageous for on-the-fly power adjustments during live performances.
