Bob, wouldn't a big Power cleaner not just a UPS but a unit that fully
re-conditions the power
deal with that..? But then we are humid here too, in NC...

Has anyone had issus with their Gefens such as pops on the

We just got installed some CAT5-5000's and this is what I've
been dealing with.
This seems to be caused by static shock. We have 2 sets of these in
adjacent rooms and in one room the console is made out of metal; When
the operator comes in and sits down (or bangs the chair into the side
of the table), it zaps something which gets back into the Gefens and
*somehow* causes the screens in MY room to freak out. (CRTs will show
a tiny little flicker but the NEC flat panels sort of 'reset', going
black for a couple of seconds and then coming back). I also hear a
pop in my RTS intercom box.
We've tried at length to isolate this, double checking that EVERYTHING
is grounded, and have never been able to get rid of this problem. I
have no idea why it's getting into the Gefens or how it's even
travelling into my room! It drives me crazy when I'm trying work and
my screens go black 10 times a day.
