Protect Equipment Worth Thousands

A premium entertainment system can easily represent many thousands of dollars in equipment.

The THOR B8+ helps protect connected devices from damaging power surges while filtering unwanted electrical noise and providing protection for power, antenna and network connections.

Compared with replacing a premium TV or AV receiver, it's a relatively small investment.

✔ 8 protected outlets

✔ Two isolated filter banks

✔ Advanced EMI/RFI filtration

✔ RJ45 network protection

✔ F-type antenna protection

✔ Large plug-friendly outlet spacing

✔ Fast Australian dispatch

Why choose the B8+ instead of a standard power board?

The B8+ combines premium surge protection with advanced EMI/RFI filtration, dual isolated outlet banks and protection for antenna and Ethernet connections, making it suitable for larger entertainment systems.

What are the two isolated filter banks for?

They help reduce electrical interference between connected devices by separating equipment into independently filtered outlet groups, which can benefit complex AV systems.

Can I use this for my home theatre?

Yes. It's designed for home entertainment systems including TVs, AV receivers, gaming consoles, soundbars, routers and streaming devices.

Does it protect network and antenna cables?

Yes. The B8+ includes built-in RJ45 data protection and F-type antenna protection to help guard against surges entering through those connections.
