DSK105 Intelliplug saves money saves energy. Powers all peripherals ON or OFF automatically via your desktop computer.

Tested to British Standards.

RoHS compliant and recommended by the Energy Saving Trust.

Desktop Computers have complicated power demands. This is due to the internal software which seeks to reduce the amount of power the computer uses. When switching the computer on, all of the internal components, including the CD/DVD drives are powered. The computer will switch off internal devices once it has established that they are not required. This means that the power demanded by a Desktop Computer can vary from an average of 70 to 350 watts and in some cases less than 2 watts.

Whilst all of this activity is being deployed by the computer to run as efficiently as possible, peripheral equipment such as the monitor, printer, speakers, scanner, and games consoles have very poor power management and are often left switched on when the computer is no longer in use.

So the challenge was to identify the correct threshold between the on and off level for the wide range of desktop computers on the market, ensuring that peripheral equipment is only switched off when the computer is not in use or in standby. This has been achieved by our patented Auto-Calibration technology which automatically switches off peripheral equipment when the computer is no longer in use. No more standby – no more wasted power.

Specification: DSK 105

• Auto Calibration – The IntelliPlug™ continuously measures the amount of electricity being consumed by your desktop computer in active and standby mode, by learning your computers unique energy pattern the IntelliPlug™ will only switch your peripherals on/off when appropriate. At the right time, every time.
• Zero-crossing detection - Automatically determines when the power supplied to the peripherals is at an optimum level for creating the least amount of stress to components. Switching at this point, the IntelliPlug™ ensures that less electrical noise is emitted in the form of interference to other electrical products such as the radio and television.
• Quality Surge Protection - will dissipate surges of up to 610 joules of energy/a peak current of 21,500 amps and includes thermal fuse in case of a catastrophic spike.
• Lowest standby power of 0.4 watts.
• Saves an average 35 watts per hour depending on the number of connected peripherals. This product can pay for itself in less than a year of use.
• Designed for use in conjunction with trailing adaptors.
• Reaction Time approximately 5 seconds
• Total Maximum Power 13 amps.
• Low energy red neon indicates when the peripheral sockets are on.
• Plug & Play - No software required.
• British Standards and RoHS Compliant.
• For Laptop Computer please use USB105
• PC and MAC compatible.
