Kensington Guardian 7-outlet surge protector
The Kensington Guardian K38217NA is a 7-outlet surge suppressor with a 6.0-foot power cord and a 540-joule AC suppression rating. It carries UL and CSA certifications and includes an indicator that monitors protection status. The outlet spacing accommodates up to seven adapter-style plugs.
Desktop users needing multiple protected sockets
This unit suits home or office desks where several mains-powered devices require basic surge protection and a 6.0-foot reach. Buyers needing higher joule ratings, coaxial or network-line protection, USB charging ports, or a longer cord should look at other models.
540-joule suppression rating
The single specification that decides suitability is the 540-joule AC suppression rating, which defines the energy the device can absorb during a surge event. Match this figure to the value of the connected equipment and the expected surge environment.

Questions about this item
Should I choose this 7-outlet model or a smaller strip for my desk?
This Guardian Premium 7 provides seven outlets spaced to accept up to seven adapter-style plugs, so you can power a full workstation without blocking adjacent sockets.
What does the 540-joule rating actually protect in daily use?
The 540-joule AC suppression rating absorbs voltage spikes from lightning or grid switching, shielding connected computers and peripherals until the indicator shows protection is exhausted.
How does the 6.0-foot cord and UL/CSA certification limit where I can place it?
The 6.0-foot cord lets you position the strip where outlets are needed, while UL and CSA certifications confirm it meets North American safety standards for indoor use.
