Active Thermal Management
|
We´re Active Thermal Management and we´ve got the coolest stuff for the hottest home theater and A/V installations. By cool we mean temperature lowering, life-extending, innovative devices that give a breath of fresh air to cramped, over-heated components. As one custom installer put it: “It isn´t cool to run hot!” Most components are designed to run in well ventilated areas. Unfortunately, when installing several components in a compact area without adequate airflow, the combined heat will shorten the life of most expensive components. This is where we can really help. We produce a full spectrum of products that quietly and efficiently replace hot air with room-temperature air. But we don´t just sell products... we solve problems. No matter how tough the situation, there is always an Active Thermal solution. Check out our website here: www.activethermal.com |

Direct Connect
|
DirectConnect® was born from a request for a patch cable without a strain relief. Years ago all interconnects were molded plastic with a large molded strain relief at each end. When domestic suppliers were asked to modify the cables, their response was, “We know what the customer wants, sell what we have.” After exhausting all our suppliers, DirectConnect® began having its own products manufactured to our specifications. The result was a cable that no longer snagged the back of cabinet shelves when equipment was pulled for service. Cables could now be separated for individual audio and video use without the cable being damaged. This modified interconnect was followed by an entire product line of installer friendly products and ideas from connector and hardware bags that are re-sealable for secure storage to cable ties in 1000 packs for value pricing with inner packs of re-sealable 100’s. Many products have patented designs such as the original “Nose” bulk wire plate and now the ultimate removable “Nose’ plate family. Today more than 10 patents and patent pending protected products are readily available to make your installations more profitable.
To our clients, DirectConnect® is committed to selling only to qualified installers and distributors. No retails sale has been our policy since our first sale. DirectConnect® |
