Total Solution to Earthing & Lightning Protection |

9AKK106354A3360

Combined Category D, C, B tested protector (to BS EN 61643) suitable to

protect twisted pair Ethernet networks, including Power over Ethernet (PoE),

with RJ45 connections. For use at boundaries up to LPZ

to protect

against flashover (typically the service entrance location) through to LPZ 3

to protect sensitive electronic equipment.

Telecoms & computer line protection

ESP Cat-5 & Cat-6 Series

Installation

Connect in series with the network cable, either:

– Near to where it enters or leaves the building, or

– As it enters the network hub, or

– Close to the equipment being protected

This should be close to the system’s earth star point

(to enable a good connection to earth).

Accessories

ESP CAT5e/UTP-1

1 metre cable with unshielded RJ45

connections

ESP CAT6/STP-2

2 metre screened cable with shielded

RJ45 connections

TECHNICAL NOTE:

The

interfaces used in Ethernet

networks incorporate an isolation

transformer which gives these

systems an inbuilt immunity to

transients between line and earth

of 1,500 Volts or more.

Features & benefits

–– Suitable for systems signalling on up to eight wires of either

shielded or unshielded twisted pair cable

–– Very low let-through voltage (enhanced protection to

IEC/BS EN 62305) between all lines - Full Mode design

capable of handling partial lightning currents as well as

allowing continual operation of protected equipment

–– Repeated protection in lightning intense environments

–– Unlike some competing devices, the ethernet SPDs

provide effective protection without impairing the system’s

normal operation

–– Low capacitance circuitry prevents the start-up signal

degradation associated with other types of network protector

–– Low in-line resistance minimizes unnecessary reductions in

signal strength to maximize signalling distance

–– Sturdy ABS housing with convenient holes for flat

mounting, or vertically via TS35 ‘Top Hat’ DIN rail

–– Substantial earth connection to enable effective earthing

–– Will protect all PoE powering modes A and B.

Application

Use these protectors on network cables that travel between

buildings to prevent damage to equipment, e.g. computers,

servers, repeaters and hubs. Suitable for computer networks

up to Cat-6A cabling.

–– To protect up to 100baseT networks with Cat-5/Cat-5e

cabling use ESP Cat-5e

–– To protect up to 1000baseT/ 10GbaseT networks with

Cat-6/Cat-6A cabling use ESP Cat-6

–– To protect up to 100baseT Power over Ethernet (PoE)

networks with Cat-5/Cat-5e use ESP Cat-5e/PoE

–– To protect up to 1000baseT/ 10GbaseT Power over

Ethernet (PoE) networks with Cat-6/Cat-6A cabling use

ESP Cat-6/PoE

For further application information, see separate Application

Note AN004 (contact us for a copy).

NOTE:

To protect datacomms systems based on twisted pairs, use the ESP D, E or H Series. Local protection for networked equipment is also available.

For protection of legacy coaxial Ethernet networks, please contact us for details of our ESP ThinNet and ESP ThickNet protectors.
