Unique, Compact Design Stays Out of the Way
The Compact Surge Protector features a streamlined design that keeps clutter to a minimum and is easy to keep out of the way. The unique, vertical design lets the surge protector easily sit on the floor, against a wall, under a desk, or behind furniture such as a couch. Its white finish blends seamlessly into the background without drawing any attention to itself.

The surge protector's sliding covers keep the unused outlets clean and safe from curious children and pets. Additionally, integrated cable management helps keep your cords tidy.

Eight Protected Outlets Safeguard Computers, Appliances, and Electronics
The Belkin Compact Surge Protector provides premium power protection for computers, stereos, big screen TVs, and other valuable electronic devices so you don't have to worry about power lulls and surges damaging your equipment and destroying your invaluable data. Advanced design elements, high-quality construction, and superior circuitry and components combine to provide great protection from power surges, spikes, lightning strikes, and AC contamination.

For maximum versatility, the protector features four regular outlets and four BlockSpace outlets that can handle oversized charger plugs.

Full Protection for Your Phone/Fax/Modem Lines
Protected pass-through points for phone/fax/modem lines are a critical part of keeping your expensive electronic gear safe, since surges over these lines are just as dangerous and damaging as surges over electrical lines. That's why the Belkin Compact Surge Protector offers one RJ11-in plug and two RJ11-out plugs for phone, fax, and modem protection. By using this protection, you can properly ensure the safety of your telecommunications devices against electrical disturbances.

Why is it important to protect my telephone or Ethernet line? Surges can enter your home or office through telephone lines to harm and even destroy sensitive electronic devices, including your computer. Using a surge protector with telephone or Ethernet protection is the only way to properly ensure the safety of your telecommunications devices against electrical disturbances.

1.0 out of 5 stars Two thumbs DOWN to the surge protector and its "warranty"!, September 14, 2010

This review is from: Belkin BE112230-08 12-Outlet Home/Office Surge Protector with Telephone and Coaxial Protection (Electronics)

I had a power surge in my house. The only thing items that got damaged were the ones on this surge protector. It made loud pops, smoked, and arced until I unplugged it. I called file a claim but the policy is such that

1) you only get reimbursed for the value you could resell your damaged products before the damage occurred
2) you have to go to a repair store (lugging your tv and electronics) and pay the repair store to give you a quote ($40 fee) just to have a chance at a refund
3) you have to pay to mail back your surge protector
4) Belkin may request you to mail your damaged devices for them to check at your own cost (seriously, mail my dead tv?!?)

After multiple phone calls with Belkin (whose customer service is polite), I've come to the following conclusions. This is a scam. The $5 surge protectors did their job. My laptops were fine. The expensive surge protector made a mess, let my equipment get toasted and resulted in a lot of hassle that didn't even help me get a replacement tv.

I wouldn't recommend this to an enemy!

5.0 out of 5 stars lightning strikes, April 4, 2008

This review is from: Belkin 12-Outlet Home/Office Surge Protector with Phone/Ethernet/Coaxial Protection and Extended Cord (Electronics)

There are a lot of reviews on this product, but I had to add mine. After lightning struck a tree next to our house, our neighbors suffered several appliance failures, including a blown TV. Ours, including our computer survived (plugged into one of these). More amazingly, the outlet this was plugged into blew out of the wall, frying the protector, the TV lost its color for 3 days, but then popped back in and we are still using it. Our electrician says, he's never seen anything like it, but he's recommending this surge protector now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful design + affordable price, March 29, 2008

This review is from: Belkin BZ108200-06 8 Outlets 3195 Joule Compact Surge Protector, 6Ft (Electronics)

Good, clean design and layout. Flexible enough to accommodate up to 6 power bricks without blocking the other outlets (4 on the wide face, 2 more on the ends of the narrow face). A "Not Grounded" warning light is a great feature that provides additional peace of mind.

I mounted it on the underside of my desk to get all the wires off the floor. The thoughtful design extends to the keyhole for screw mounting which gives you the option of forward or sideways engagement. It works even better when upside down because the cables hang down instead of draping over.

On the quality side, the on/off switch feels flimsy, and 3 prong, grounded plugs take some effort to pull back out. Belkin probably figured these actions aren't frequent enough to warrant complaint, i.e. most people just plug in, switch on, and forget about it for the next three years, and cost reduced these components to keep the price down. It's a good compromise. I'm very pleased with the product and the price!
