Product Description

The TRIPP LITE CST40AC is a surge protector and power distribution unit designed for enterprise and commercial electrical installations. It provides protected AC power distribution to connected equipment, serving as a front-line defense against voltage spikes and transient surges that can damage sensitive electronics. Electricians and facilities technicians typically specify this type of unit for server rooms, telecom closets, and other critical power environments where consistent, protected power delivery is required. The CST40AC ships as a single unit and is categorized under enterprise-grade surge protection and PDU solutions.

The CST40AC is suited for enterprise and commercial applications where multiple AC loads need centrally distributed, surge-protected power.
