Is 3,940 joules enough for a home office?

Yes. That rating is high for a consumer strip and covers a desktop, monitor, printer and router with margin. It does not protect against every surge, but it exceeds what most office setups need.

Does it have USB ports?

No. The listed specs show AC outlets only, so phones and tablets need their own chargers. If USB charging matters, look at Belkin's strips that include USB-A or USB-C ports.

Can it be mounted on a wall?

Yes. It is listed as wall-mountable with a slim profile, which suits mounting behind a desk or media console. You supply the screws for your wall type.

How long is the cord?

The cord is 8 feet and described as a heavy-duty extension cord. That is long enough to reach most wall outlets from a desk or TV stand.

Is it safe for a 15 A circuit?

It is rated at 15 A and 1,875 W, matching a standard US 15 A household circuit. Do not exceed that total load, and avoid daisy-chaining it into another strip.
