The Good End has arrived and you made a great purchase, your console, now you must connect it to your TV, to your modem, a thousand and one cables to connect and a single plug, so you decide to connect everything in a multicontact, without realizing that You can cause an overvoltage and thus cause you to disconnect from the game or worse, that your equipment suffers irreversible damage.
Power strips work for a lack of plugs, as they allow you to power multiple devices from a single outlet, but if you want to protect your gaming hardware once morest surges, you should choose one that also includes a surge protector.
A surge or electrical overload is a brief increase in electricity with a voltage higher than that of the devices connected to the network and, therefore, can damage them, due to the operation of household appliances, an electrical storm, among others. These surges travel along the lines to your home’s wiring and can damage or destroy connected electronic devices. It is worth mentioning that even small overloads can reduce the performance or useful life of the equipment.
Thus, valuable equipment must be connected to a surge protector, such as a UPS, which not only helps regulate and suppress voltage spikes, but also serves to maintain and give continuity to the energy used by the equipment.
In addition, the equipment can have more features such as protecting telephone and data lines, USB ports to safely charge phones and tablets, a master port and a control plug. The latter allows that if, for example, we connect the television to an Xbox console, plugging the first into the master port and the second into the control socket, the power supply that goes to the Xbox stops, at the moment in which it is switched off. turn off the tv.
For example, APC by Schneider Electric, is a solution specially designed to keep you in the game and allow you to play a game without interruptions with all the functionalities mentioned above. At the same time that it protects your equipment, it will preserve its useful life to the maximum and also offers guarantees and policies that cover those cases in which a device connected to a surge protector suffers damage due to overloads.
All you have to do is connect your fixed console, portable console, mobile phone, or high-performance equipment to the UPS, and connect the UPS to power. In this way, if you have a problem with the electricity supply, it will have enough energy stored in its internal batteries to deliver a constant flow of energy autonomously for a limited period (it varies depending on the amount of equipment you connect to it). Plus, it will give you enough time to save your work or game before safely shutting down your device.
