INTRODUCTION Never in the history of power protection has there been a product line that has
revolutionized the industry the way that Niles' iPOWER™has. iPOWER™Intelligent Power
Management Systems represent a breakthrough in three main areas: power protection, noise
filtration, and power management.Based on solid scientific principles, clever engineering, and
fastidious execution, iPOWER™devices are built to the most stringent standards in the industry and
provide the maximum electrical protection and advanced performance enhancing technology.
iPOWER'si3™(instantaneous,impenetrable,and virtually indestructible)three-stage power protec-
tion circuitry stands head and shoulders abovethe industry in terms of delivering instantaneous
response time. Its clamping levels are among the lowest in the industry, providing unrivaled
electrical protection for its connected equipment. Its iQ™Optimal Q Impulse Noise Filtering
technology has the ability to reduce detail-obscuring “noise” on the AC power line, resulting in
performance that’s sure to please even the most demanding eyes and ears. In fact, iPOWER™may
be the first "audiophile-approved" power protection technology available at any price. Additionally,
its iDefinition™HDTV-readycoax circuitry provides protection while minimizing signal loss from
input to output so images are razor sharp and colors are vivid. Plus, with a full complement of true
line diagnostics, and user-friendly one button operation, your AC-8CX puts you in complete control
of your system.
