BP550 PLUS The BP550 PLUS is the perfect power supply for the entry-level user, providing stable power, quiet cooling, and advanced cable management for improved airflow and ease-of-use. This entry-level solution gives you everything you need in a power supply. No twinkly lights or glittery paint jobs - a 120 mm fan for effective and quiet cooling, triple +12V rails for amazingly stable power, heavy-duty protection circuitry and Active Power Factor Correction (PFC) that saves money on corporate power bills. And it comes with all the assurance of Antec's AQ3 Antec Quality 3-year limited warranty. All the features, none of the waste: for builders that are strictly business, the BP550 PLUS is strictly power. STANDARDS AND FEATURES The connectors and power specifications of the BP550 PLUS PSU are all compatible with ATX12V v2.3 specifications. This power supply also features Active Power Factor Correction (PFC), which improves the power factor value of the power supply by altering the input current wave shape, helping to power transmission across the grid. SYSTEM PROTECTION A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: Over Current Protection (OCP), Over Voltage Protection (OVP) & Short Circuit Protection (SCP). Sometimes the PSU will "latch" into a protected state. You will need to power off the PSU and clear the fault before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your BP550 PLUS. 2
