What is a low-pass filter in a Surge Protector?
An electronic filter that allows only the frequencies lower than a given point to be passed, eliminating all frequencies above it. The exact filter point in this HDTV-focused surge protector only allow the AC frequency of 60 Hz to pass and stop any garbage on the line above that frequency, including those above 1080p frequencies that may have leaked in. Q: What makes this surge protector different than what I can get elsewhere? A: We have 3-MOV’s (Metal Oxide Varistors) in our Surge Protectors which protect your expensive HDTV equipment. Other surge protectors either don’t have a MOV or have only one. Your equipment is triple-protected! Q: What is a MOV? A: a MOV is a small electronic component which is used for voltage protection. The role of the MOV is to divert surge current. The MOV is put in place to clamp transient voltages thus diverting a potentially high surge current from entering the main circuit causing component failure. This is done by applying the device across the circu
