FEATURE DETAILS

Circuit Breaker

A circuit breaker is located on the back panel of the MAX®5300. The circuit breaker will trip only if the total current draw exceeds the maximum current rating (15A). This means that collectively, all outlets must draw more than 15 Amps before the circuit breaker will trip.

SignalPerfectCoaxial Line Protection

All coaxial cable sheaths from outdoors must be grounded to the building grounding electrode system where they enter the building (per applicable NEC/CEC code). A driven ground rod is not adequate.

Panamax’s exclusive SignalPerfect™ Technology provides application-specific protection for your satellite and cable TV equipment. Two lines of protection are provided for each type. The satellite connections are for coaxial cables connected to a DBS (single or dual LNB) satellite dish. The antenna connection is for a non-amplified rooftop antenna or cable TV line. The Additional TV connection protects the equipment plugged into the MAX® 5300 from “backdoor” surges in situations where the video signal runs to another room for a downline TV.

Cable TV (Including HDTV) – TV tuners operate at approximately 10 millivolts (0.01 V) and utilize the frequency spec- trum of 50Mhz to 950Mhz. The clamping level of the MAX® 5300’s cable TV protection circuitry is 700 millivolts (0.7 volts). That’s less than 1 volt above normal operating levels. The circuitry is shielded to prevent interference and has been opti- mized to have less than 1dB of signal loss throughout the entire 50Mhz to 950Mhz range.

Satellite - Satellite dish LNB’s can require up to 24 volts to operate and utilize the frequency range of 950Mhz to 2.2Ghz. The clamping level of the MAX® 5300’s satellite protection circuitry is 27 volts - just 3 volts above the maximum operating voltage. The circuitry is shielded to prevent interference and has been optimized to have less than 1dB of signal loss throughout the entire 950Mhz to 2.05Ghz range and less than 2.4db up to 2.2Ghz.

SignalPerfectTelephone Line Protection

Satellite TV receivers require a telephone line connection for Pay-Per-View services. The MAX® 5300 also provides surge protection for this line. One pair of RJ-11/45 compatible telephone jacks is provided for this. The circuitry utilizes auto- resetting PTCRs and solid-state SIDACtors™ for reliability and unsurpassed protection. The clamping level of the MAX® 5300’s telephone protector is 260 volts. This will allow typical ring voltage (90-130VAC) and operating battery voltage (-48DC) to pass through the circuit and still protect the modem in your satellite receiver from damage.

Please note: The protection circuitry will not work if the phone lines are reversed. The incoming phone cable must be connected to the "LINE" jack and the cable to the audio/video equipment must be connected to the "EQUIP" jack.
