Style. Function. Performance.

Designed Specifically for High-Performance AV Environments

Unique needs require special design. We know you pay attention to detail when it comes to your home AV

setup. APC spent extra time and resources to ensure we provided the right design to complement your audio

and video components. That’s not to say it’s just another pretty faceplate. You get the trusted technology that’s

earned APC millions of delighted customers worldwide.

APC AV’s S10 and S15 were engineered to manage its thermal dissipation so efficiently that the ultra-quiet

cooling fan should only need to operate during power outages. Audible alarms are set to “off” by default.

LED and display brightness can be independently controlled by the user to suit their particular tastes.

All of these details are critical to creating an all-in-one power protection unit that is well suited for

high-performance home AV systems.

DC Trigger Enables Remote

Sequenced Turn On/Off of

the 3 Delayed Outlets

Components “Follow the Leader”

in Power On/Off

Many high-performance AV compo-

nents use a DC voltage trigger to

automatically control turning on

and off other components. Both the

S10 and S15 have a built-in DC

trigger that controls power to the

three delayed outlets as well as

acts as a pass-through for another

device downstream.

3 Delayed Outlets Prevent

Stressing Speakers and

Help Manage Current Draw

on Startup

APC AV Helps You Power ‘ON’

Safely and Easily

If the system is powered “on” out of

sequence, an audible “pop” will be heard

through the speakers, which is believed

to cause unnecessary “wear and tear”.

By turning on the pre-amp and amplifier

(or receiver) in the correct sequence

(with the right delay), this stress can be

avoided. APC AV’s S10 and S15 provide

this “sequenced turn on” functionality.

Delays can be set by the user via the

front panel display.

If the branch circuit is heavily loaded,

proper sequencing can also avoid

tripping your circuit breaker. Both the

S10 and S15 are designed so that

these in-rush start-up currents do not

overload, or cause damage to, the unit.

Display Panel and LED Indicators Provide Advanced Monitoring and Configuration

Know Your Power Situation at a Glance…Customize To Your Environment

Not only do APC AV’s S Type Power Conditioners with

Battery Backup proactively notify you of changing power

and unit conditions, they also allow you to configure them

for your particular power and system needs. Either the

display screen or the LEDs will tell you if the unit is oper-

ating on battery power, how charged the battery is, how

much battery runtime is available, whether the unit is

boosting/trimming the voltage, and much more. Through

the display screen, you are able to adjust various set-

tings including transfer voltage points, unit sensitivity to

power disturbances, outlet turn on delays, alarm settings,

and LED/Display brightness.

It is very common for surges and spikes to enter a system over

COAX, phone, or Ethernet lines. APC AV’s low insertion loss protec-

tion jacks offer you the protection and flexibility you need. Three

pairs of gold COAX jacks are included to protect CATV, satellite,

and antenna lines. The S15 also includes a low insertion loss

splitter to facilitate splitting a COAX line to both a CATV box and

a cable modem for those who have Broadband service provided

by their cable TV provider.

For any component that is connected to a home computer network,

the S15 offers Ethernet protection jacks. Finally, if you have a DVR,

set-top box, or DSL modem connected to a standard analog phone

line, protection is available through the unit’s 2-line, 4-wire phone

protection jacks. (Note: S10 has single line only)

COAX, Phone, and Ethernet Protection Jacks Prevent Damage from Surges Traveling Over Data Lines

Protect Your System’s “Back Door”

Rack-mountable

APC AV is easy to install

Hardware is included to fit any 19” rack. No

custom shelving or mounting hardware needed.
