Basic power rack, does what we need.I had three small IT sub-racks in a new plant we were building and I needed exactly this to split up some power. Startech usually just has better quality stuff and this is true here.Price was also pretty good.

This is a simple but seemingly decent quality power conditioner. I installed it in a rack with band equipment. I have used other Star-Tech equipment over the years and has always been decent quality. This seems no different the Jacks all seem solid and it fit in the rack perfectly.

Great product, plenty of sockets for my home lab. Would buy again.

These are my now "Go To " rack power strips that offers some sure protection and is priced right! Yes I also use expensive pro power products but sometimes I need a more budget friendly product and this fits the bill PERFECT!I have these units in a few Church installs and all look great, work great, and I have never had one fail on me!I'll keep buying these units when I need some outlets in a rack and also sleep better at night knowing I have some surge protection.

Seems to sit and power just like intended. Seems well built. However, the rocker switch is weirdly sensitive and barely pushing bottom even without click will sever power. Do not hesitate and no problem, but I've never had a power strip rocker act like that.Second, it comes with many ports which is awesome but one of them closest to the powet input came ground locked. This usually happens when it has sustained some damage, as a piece of metal is literally blocking the ground port. Result is one less ground plug, the ungrounded prongs do work for no ground needed loads. Surely it's just a defect on mine and they are not all that way.The indicator says it is still surge protecting so that makes me feel good.Good value for money esp. if you get a good switch and all ports!

Works perfectly Don’t settle for cheaper power conditioning for your tv or audio equipment

Replaced a high end one after it fried after a power surge. This one has survived multiple power surges and is still going
