It satisfied all my needs for telephone line/phone protection & for power line/equipment protection all in one surge protector.
On the positive side Walmart replaced this APC 11-Outlet Surge Protector immediately. I installed device but coax In/Out plug just turned and turned and turned some more. It wasn't stripped on outside threads but inside housing had nothing securing it and of course no video either. Haven't installed the new replacement yet.....
This APC 11-Outlet Surge Protector is supposed to have the telephone, dsl and coaxial protection with surgeArrest but it falls short. The plugs are great- a lot of room for my larger plug bases but when I plugged in my phone cord and went out to the devices it's dead, the dsl and phone doesn't work at all! I wanted my phone and dsl to be surge protected but this doesn't work. I didn't try the coaxial part because I only wanted this surge protector for my office. I will be returning since there's no use having such a large footprint for an item that doesn't work for what I need it to, a smaller strip will be sufficient if I can't plug in my phone and dsl.
I'm not an electrical engineer; so do some research on surge protector technology. I believe that the surge protective component is called a metal oxide varistor. It supposedly is a consumable item that 'wears out' after surges. A nearby lightning strike fried a laptop connected to old surge protector and a TV connected to a different surge protector; so I bought two new surge protectors, a new modem, a new laptop and new TV. The lightning strike also damaged a modem and phone wiring. So now when there are nearby thunderstorms, I shut down and disconnect power and other wires to the laptop, etc. Do read the surge protector instructions for proper connections.
I bought this because with some new stereo equipment I wanted to make sure my devices are protected. I picked these because they had the highest available surge ratings. I'm very happy with them, they are robust and well designed. My one suggestion would be to add the switched outlets that have their power cut when the master device is turned off, in order to eliminate phantom loads.
