American Power Conversion S20BLK

1-10

Outlets - These include the two rows of six outlets (total of 12 outlets) on

the rear of the S Type Power Conditioner, shown in Figure 3. These

outlets are arranged based on the type of filtering protection (DIGITAL,

VIDEO, ANALOG), and isolated noise filter banks (INFBs) eliminate

electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference

(RFI) that can negatively affect sound and video quality. We recommend

that you examine the types of outlets provided, review your equipment

requirements, and plug devices into the appropriate outlets to assure

optimum protection for your equipment. The various types of outlets are

defined in the following subparagraphs:

– SWITCHED 1 - DIGITAL FILTER outlets eliminate noise

interference for digital components (CD, DVD, DVR, CATV/SAT, Flat

Panel MONITOR, AUX, hi-definition tuners, and so on.).

– SWITCHED 2 - VIDEO FILTER outlets provide filtering for video

devices (TV and VCR).

Note:Any digita l device can be plugged into the DIGITAL FILTER

outlets, any video device can be plugged into either of the

VIDEO FILTER outlets, and so on. For example, if you have a

cable box and a satellite receiver, but no monitor, you can plug

the cable box into the CATV/SAT outlet, and the satellite

receiver into the MONITOR outlet.

– SWITCHED DELAY1 outlets provide filtering for analog-based

equipment (TUNER/AUX, and PREAMP/RCVR).

– SWITCHED DELAY2 outlets provide filtering for high current

devices (SUBWOOFER and AMPLIFIER).

EXTERNAL BATTERY Connector

This inlet provides a connection for APC’s optional S Type Extended

Battery Pack. For additional information, please go to www.apcav.com,

or contact your local APC retailer.

Surge Protected COAX/RF Connectors

The surge protection feature prevents surges that may travel over coaxial

data lines from damaging the system. Connect the coaxial cable from the

CATV or cable modem provider to the connector marked IN, connect

other cables from the connectors marked OUT to the device(s) being

protected.

Note:In some cases, the in pu t f or both CATV box and cable modem

are derived via a single cable from the provider, similar to how

TV and Internet access occurs through a single cable.
