Times Microwave Systems data line surge protectors

Times Microwave Systems has recently introduced a range of data line surge protectors that are claimed to surpass the performance of similar protectors.

The LP-DOE-1G, LP-POE-1G and LP-PAE-100 data line surge protection devices are the latest additions to the Times-Protect range. Proprietary circuitry results in surge let-through voltage on data lines of less than 20 V peak at 3 kA 8x20 µs surge test current and less than 10 V peak at 100 A 10x1000 µs surge test current, while complying with extended RFC2544 test methods for data integrity. These difficult tests are conducted on two protection devices separated by 100 m of Cat 5e cable over a broad temperature range measuring the parameters of throughput, latency, jitter and frame loss.

The LP-DOE-1G is designed for 1000baseT Ethernet (data only) indoor applications with all data pins protected to chassis ground, while the LP-POE-1G is designed for 1000baseT PoE applications with up to 60 VDC injected, and all pin pairs protected to chassis ground.

The LP-PAE-100 is designed for 100baseT power and Ethernet applications, with all pins protected to ground, and where data pin pairs are (1-2) (3-6) and DC pin pairs are (4-5) (7-8).
