ESP Cat-5 & Cat-6 Series NEW Installation Connect in series with the network cable, either: a) near to where it enters or leaves the building, or b) as it enters the network hub, or c) close to the equipment being protected This should be close to the system's earth star point (to enable a good connection to earth). DIRTY CLEAN ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS PROTECTION Plug-in Lightning Barrier 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 0B to protect against flashover (typically the service entrance location) through to LPZ 3 to protect sensitive electronic equipment. Wilford Road, Nottingham, NG2 1EB, UK From line Earth To equipment Plug-in series connection Features and 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 BS EN 62305) between all lines - Full Mode protection 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 minimises unnecessary reductions in signal strength to maximise 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 Supplied with short (50 cm) Cat-5e UTP or Cat-6 STP cable to enable neat installation A Furse ESP Cat-5e/Gb protecting a hub from transient overvoltages on a network connection with another building 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. 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-6 cabling. To protect up to 100baseT and up to 1000baseT networks with Cat-5/Cat-5e cabling use ESP Cat-5e and ESP Cat-5e/Gb respectively To protect up to 10GbaseT networks with Cat-6 cabling use ESP Cat-6 To protect up to 100baseT, 1000baseT and 10GbaseT Power over Ethernet (PoE) networks use ESP Cat-5e/PoE, ESP Cat-5e/Gb/PoE and ESP Cat-6/PoE respectively Accessories ESP CAT5e/UTP-1 1 metre cable with unshielded RJ45 connections ESP CAT6/STP-1 1 metre screened cable with shielded RJ45 connections For further application information, see separate Application Note AN004 (contact us for a copy).
