Samson PB15 User Manual

3

The Samson PowerStrip PS15, PowerBrite PB15, and PowerBrite PB15Pro all utilize 

state-of-the-art technology in power distribution and are engineered to the finest 

detail.  Here are some of their main features:
•    Eight switched, rear panel, AC outlets that allow you to power an entire rack’s worth 

of gear from one source.  In addition, an unswitched front panel convenience outlet 

is provided for temporary power needs (such as plugging in a guitar amplifier, 

soldering iron, etc.). 

•    Rear panel switched outlets are mounted both vertically and horizontally to 

accommodate standard 3-pin plugs as well as external transformer AC power 

adapters. 

•    3-point surge protection, spike clamping protection and RF filtering enables all 

connected equipment to operate with maximum efficiency and minimal noise. 

•   Front panel, re-settable, 15 amp circuit breaker protects all connected gear. 
•    An independent dedicated switch with status light for powering the rear panel 

switched outlets. 

•    In the PowerBrite PB15 and PowerBrite PB15Pro, dual slide out cylinders containing 

LED light clusters that illuminate all gear underneath with cool, clear light.  In 

addition, there is automatic switching for turning on the lamps.  

•    In the PowerBrite PB15 and PB15Pro, a rear panel USB socket to use with the 

included LED gooseneck lamp providing rear rack lighting.

•    In the PowerBrite PB15Pro, a front panel voltmeter and ammeter that allow you to 

monitor changes in the current drawn from both switched and unswitched outlets. 

•    All units are designed to be mounted in the top slot of any standard 19” rack, taking 

only a single rack space. 

•    Rugged construction that makes the Samson PowerStrip PS15, PowerBrite 

PB15, and PowerBrite PB15Pro eminently roadworthy and extremely reliably in 

permanent installation.
