Lowell RPC Remote Power Control Low Voltage AC Switch | 15A | 2 Outlets | NEMA 5-15R

The Lowell RPC Remote Power Control series gives AV integrators and systems engineers a reliable, low-voltage method of switching AC power to equipment installed at remote locations. Designed for installed AV environments including boardrooms, houses of worship, classrooms, and distributed audio systems, each unit accepts a dry contact closure or compatible voltage signal from an external trigger such as an SPST switch, power sequencer, relay, or DSP control system. This keeps high-voltage AC switching off the control surface and out of the hands of end users, reducing risk of unauthorized access and simplifying system startup and shutdown routines.

The RPC family spans a range of power ratings, outlet configurations, and termination styles to match the demands of specific installations. Some models include pass-through RJ45 jacks for daisy-chaining multiple units in a sequenced startup order, with DIP switch selection of each unit's position in the chain. Select models also include surge suppression for added protection of downstream equipment. The steel chassis with black finish keeps the unit unobtrusive when surface or rack mounted, and multiple termination options including attached cords, hardwired conduit, and IEC or NEMA connectors allow the series to fit a wide range of installation scenarios without field modification.

For systems integrators specifying power control for permanent installations, the RPC series offers a depth of configuration options that generic power strips and manual switching cannot match. External trigger compatibility with common control platforms makes the RPC straightforward to integrate into larger room control or DSP-driven systems, and the compact chassis fits where space is at a premium.
