Belkin 12-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip 4000J

This power strip is built to protect multiple high-value electronics — HDTVs, gaming consoles, receivers, Blu-ray players, computers and chargers — from damaging voltage spikes, line noise and transient surges. With twelve AC outlets arranged for large adapters, integrated coaxial and RJ11 protection, and built-in filtering, it gives a central, tidy hub for powering and defending home-theater and desktop setups.

How much surge protection does this strip provide?

The strip is rated to absorb up to 4,000 joules of energy, using oversized metal-oxide varistors (MOVs) and three-line protection to divert and dissipate harmful spikes. It also applies powerline filtering to reduce electrical noise that can blur audio and video signals.

• 4,000 joules maximum surge absorption
• Three-line AC protection for hot, neutral and ground
• Power filtering to lower line noise for clearer picture and sound
• Oversized MOVs for extended absorption capacity

Which devices and signal lines are protected?

Up to twelve AC-powered devices can be connected simultaneously, including large adapters thanks to block-spaced outlets. The unit also protects one coaxial input/output and provides one-in/two-out RJ11 telephone/fax protection so your cable and phone lines are guarded against surges that could affect signal quality or damage gear.

• Twelve grounded AC outlets (includes block-spaced layout)
• One-in/one-out coaxial protection for cable or satellite lines
• One-in/two-out RJ11 telephone/fax protection
• Surge-protected ports keep audio/video and phone signals intact

What convenience and safety features are included?

The design combines user-friendly and safety-minded elements: an 8-foot heavy‑duty cord with a low-profile flat plug for tight spaces, a recessed power switch to avoid accidental shutdown, and sliding outlet covers to keep unused sockets child-safe. A cord manager, mounting holes, and a durable housing make installation tidy and long-lasting.

• 8 ft heavy-duty cord with low-profile flat plug for furniture clearance
• Recessed on/off switch to prevent accidental power loss
• Sliding safety covers and mounting holes for secure installation
• Power-cord manager on the underside keeps cables organized

How will I know the protector is still active and grounded?

Visible indicator LEDs communicate protection status: a surge-protection indicator shows when MOVs are functioning, and a not-grounded light warns you if the outlet lacks a proper ground. Remember surge components wear out over time; indicators help you detect when protection is no longer available.

• Surge protection indicator LED confirms active protection
• Not-grounded indicator alerts to improper grounding
• Replace the unit if the protection indicator is off
• Manufacturer warranty and connected-equipment coverage provide additional assurance

Who this is for: This Belkin surge protector is aimed at homeowners, gamers, content creators, and small-office users who need to power and protect multiple electronics from spikes and electrical noise. It’s a practical choice when you need room for large adapters, coax/phone line protection, and a long, low-profile cord to keep power centralized and out of the way.
