Key benefits
- 6 Outlets: Connect up to six devices from one powerboard for easier setup of desks, entertainment systems or AV gear.
- Individual Socket Switches: Turn each connected device on or off separately without unplugging leads.
- Surge Protection: Adds protection against everyday mains spikes for common electronics such as TVs, modems and gaming consoles.
- Compact Body: The 31.2 cm x 6.9 cm x 3.4 cm size fits neatly in most desk, cabinet or entertainment spaces.
- Standard 230-240V AC 50Hz Operation: Works with typical Australian household power for straightforward everyday use.
- Black Finish: Blends in easily with modern office, entertainment and AV setups.
- Standby Power Control: Individual switches make it easier to stop power to devices not in use without disconnecting them.
- 1 Year Manufacturer's Warranty: Provides basic coverage for added purchase confidence.
Q: Can I switch off one device without unplugging the others?
A: Yes. Each of the six outlets has its own switch, so one device can be turned off while the others stay on. That suits mixed setups like a modem, console and TV where everything is not used at the same time.
Q: Is this powerboard suitable for a heater or kettle?
A: No. Jackson PT1816 is not intended for high-draw appliances such as heaters or kettles. It is better suited to everyday electronics like TVs, modems, gaming consoles or desk equipment that do not place the same load on a powerboard.
Q: Will bulky chargers cover the next outlet on this board?
A: Jackson PT1816 is designed with spacing that better suits bulky chargers and adapters than tightly packed boards. Very large plug packs can still vary in shape, so adjacent outlet clearance will depend on the adapter body, not just the plug.
Q: Does the surge protection suit TVs, modems and gaming consoles?
A: Yes. Jackson PT1816 includes surge protection for everyday electronics such as TVs, modems and gaming consoles. It is not positioned as specialist protection for high-end or professional equipment that may need a more dedicated setup.
Q: Will it fit behind a TV unit or under a desk?
A: Yes, in many setups. Jackson PT1816 measures 312mm deep, 69mm wide and 34mm high, so it can sit along the back of a TV unit or under a desk, though cable bend space still matters in tighter furniture layouts.
Q: Can all six outlets be used at the same time?
A: Yes, for multiple everyday devices. Jackson PT1816 has 6 outlet ports and is designed for electronics such as AV gear, desk equipment and network devices, but it is not intended for high-draw appliances on those outlets.
