CAT 5E Low Voltage Protector Packs

Termination and Protection of Data Network Equipment

Porta Systems now offers UL listed Low Voltage Protectors for data communication circuits. They are designed to protect networking protocols operation at transmission speeds up to 100 MHz from transients that can harm sensitive electronic equipment. Ultra low capacitance solid state technology allows for CAT5E performance in addition to quick reaction to hazardous electrical surges without network degradation.

These Protectors have been designed to protect data networks operating below 7.5, 18, and 27 volts, allowing optimum transmission performance. Porta Systems Low Voltage Protectors come in convenient pre-packaged 4, 6, 8, and 10 pair Protector Packs.

Replacement Modules are also available.
