SRP $299.95

MAX In-Wall Power-Pro

Where it is not practical to run an AC line from the rack to the remote display location, the MAX In-Wall Power-Pro can utilize any branch circuit to deliver safe power to the remote display in a UL-approved, code-compliant manner. The 15-Amp Power-Pro offers two AC outlets with Level 1 EMI/RFI noise filtration for clear, detailed images and crisp sound, while Thermal Fusing, Over Voltage Protection, and Catastrophic Surge circuitry protect sensitive home theater components from damaging power surges and voltage transients. SRP $99.95

MAX In-Wall Dual Signal Bay

The MAX In-Wall Dual Signal Bay offers an elegant, convenient solution for connecting signal lines from the source device to the display device when running cables within walls. The Dual Signal Bay accommodates two blank module inserts with pass-through plugs or two in-wall signal protection modules and fits into many two-gang outlet brackets. The unit features a full metal housing and enlarged faceplate to accommodate oversize wall cutouts and a 14-AWG, solid-wire connection for bonding and grounding to in-wall AC units. SRP $29.95

Introducing the MAX PM (Power Management) Component Family

Panamax will be introducing the performance-enhancing MAX PM family of power management products: the 4300-PM, 5100-PM, 5300-PM, and 5400-PM. All components in the MAX PM family are specifically designed for high-definition systems, and feature a distinctive, easy-to-understand icon system to compare features and evaluate system performance.

MAX 4300-PM

The MAX 4300-PM power conditioner offers Level 2 power cleaning and Linear Filtration Technology (LiFT) to eliminate common symptoms of AC line noise, allowing equipment to perform at full capacity for an optimal home theater experience. Additionally, noise isolation between the two isolated outlet banks prevents any noise created by a component plugged into one bank from contaminating the power to equipment plugged into the other outlet bank. For the protection and longevity of home theater components, the MAX 4300-PM features Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), a patent-pending technology that monitors the incoming power as displayed on the digital voltmeter. A USB charger and gaming convenience outlet on the front allow portable devices to be conveniently connected to and disconnected from the unit. SRP $299.95

MAX 5100-PM

For increased protection against AC noise, the MAX 5100-PM offers Level 3 power cleaning and Linear Filtration Technology (LiFT) for a 60% increase in noise-eliminating efficiency over Level 2. The 5100-PM also features three isolated outlet banks, including two high-current outlets, and offers sequential startup/shutdown, which prevents internally generated voltage transients that occur when home theater components are powered on or off at the same time. A 12-volt trigger input allows source equipment to activate or deactivate the 5100-PM's switched outlets. For the protection and longevity of home theater components, the MAX 5100-PM features Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), a patent-pending technology that monitors the incoming power as displayed on the digital voltmeter. A USB charger, gaming convenience outlet, and gaming LAN port on the front allow portable devices to be conveniently connected to and disconnected from the unit. SRP $399.95

MAX 5300-PM

For a higher level of protection against AC noise, the MAX 5300-PM offers Level 4 power cleaning and Linear Filtration Technology (LiFT), which evenly eliminates noise across the entire bandwidth, ensuring peak audio and video performance by reducing harmonic distortion and improving the signal-to-noise ratio. The 5300-PM also features five isolated outlet banks and offers sequential startup/shutdown, which prevents internally generated voltage transients that occur when home theater components are powered on or off at the same time. A 12-volt trigger input allows source equipment to activate or deactivate the 5300-PM's switched outlets. For the protection and longevity of home theater components, the 5300-PM features Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), a patent-pending technology that monitors the incoming power. A USB charger, gaming convenience outlet, and gaming LAN port on the front allow portable devices to be conveniently connected to and disconnected from the unit. SRP $499.95

MAX 5400-PM

In addition to offering Level 4+ power cleaning and Linear Filtration Technology (LiFT) for the best-possible sound and image quality from home theater components, the MAX 5400-PM also features voltage regulation, which regulates the output voltage for banks 1 through 4 to 120 V ± 5 V. The 5400-PM also features five isolated outlet banks and offers sequential startup/shutdown, which prevents internally generated voltage transients that occur when home theater components are powered on or off at the same time. A 12-volt trigger input allows source equipment to activate or deactivate the 5400-PM's switched outlets. For the protection and longevity of home theater components, the 5400-PM features Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), a patent-pending technology that monitors the incoming power. A USB charger, gaming convenience outlet, and gaming LAN port on the front allow portable devices to be conveniently connected to and disconnected from the unit. SRP $699.95

Additional New Panamax Products Showcased at CEDIA:

MAX 7500-PRO

The MAX 7500-Pro helps ensure that home theater systems deliver the best- possible sound and picture quality by protecting them from electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), digital noise, and ground loop disturbances. Key features of the MAX 7500-Pro include advanced Linear Filtration Technology (LiFT), ground isolation, remote diagnostics (IP-ready with optional Ethernet card), voltage regulation, balanced power, dual analog meters, Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM), additional high-current outlets, auto-dimming meters, protection for satellite, Cable Access Television (CATV), antenna, telephone, and local area networks (LANs), as well as a 12-volt trigger, USB light, and rack ears. SRP $1,999.95

M8-HT-PRO/M10-HT-PRO

Designed to work with high-definition systems, both the M8-HT-PRO and M10-HT-PRO offer power cleaning and premium filtration to eliminate common symptoms of AC line noise, allowing equipment to perform at its full capability for an optimal home theater experience. Additionally, noise isolation between isolated outlet banks prevents any noise created by a component plugged into one bank from contaminating the power to equipment plugged into the other outlet bank. A 12-volt trigger input allows source equipment to activate or deactivate three delayed outlets on the M8-HT-PRO and M10-HT-PRO for high-current equipment such as power amplifiers and subwoofers. Additionally, the M10-HT-PRO offers Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT), which suppresses noise dramatically and consistently across the entire dynamic range for stunning audio and video quality. SRP M8-HT-PRO $149.95 and SRP M10-HT-PRO $199.95.

MFP-400

Featuring a slimline design that makes it ideal for mounting out-of-view, behind flat panel displays, the MFP-400 offers power cleaning and premium filtration for the best-possible sound and picture quality. For component longevity, Automatic Voltage Monitoring (AVM) circuitry monitors the incoming AC power and disconnects power to connected components in case of an unsafe voltage. Once the voltage returns to safe levels, the MFP-400 restores the power supply to the connected equipment. Panamax's exclusive Protect or Disconnect(tm) circuitry completely removes the AC power from connected equipment in the event of a catastrophic surge, while integrated coax/sat protection prevents electrical surges that travel over cable, satellite, and antenna lines from damaging your equipment.
