Ethernet Surge Protector 19 Rackmount (16 Port) PoE+ Gigabit (Server Rack Mount 1U) - Tupavco TP316

The Tupavco 1U Rack Mount with 16x Ethernet Surge Protectors is a versatile and reliable solution for safeguarding your network equipment. This 19-inch (1U) rackmount panel is designed to house 16 individual Ethernet surge protectors, shielding your devices from the damaging effects of power surges, voltage spikes, and lightning strikes.

Each Ethernet surge protector is an inline surge protection device (SPD) that is installed on an RJ45 CAT6/CAT5/CAT5e cable to prevent damage to electronic networking equipment. These individual protectors can be easily replaced with the compatible Tupavco TP309 (ASIN: B078NKGPJC) item, ensuring ongoing protection and convenience.

The surge protectors utilize gas discharge tubes (GDTs) to overcome the limitations of diode-based protectors, providing superior energy handling capabilities and suitability for a wide range of surge frequencies, whether high or low. The GDTs dissipate voltage transients through a contained plasma gas, safely harnessing excess voltage and releasing it, ensuring the safety of valuable network components such as switches, routers, modems, and repeaters.

The 16-line/port RJ45 lightning protection supports Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 (GbE) networks, allowing for ultra-fast data transfer rates up to 1 Gbps (1000 Mbps) without compromising speed performance. Additionally, the PoE surge protector feature enables a single RJ-45 cable to provide both data connection and power to devices like wireless access points, IP/security cameras, VoIP phones, and computers.

The rackmount must be properly grounded to ensure the excess electricity follows the path of least resistance, typically through a ground busbar on an electrical panel or network rack cabinet. The lightning arrestor can be used with both unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and shielded (STP) cables, providing protection in both line-to-line and line-to-ground modes.

The Ethernet surge protector has a nominal discharge current of 5KA, which defines the peak value of the current that can be passed through the SPD with an 8/20μs waveshape, ensuring the device remains functional after 15 surges. When the surge protector's voltage exceeds its designed rating, it "begins to clamp" and starts to conduct energy directly to the electrical grounding system, protecting your network equipment.

Investing in this easy-to-install surge protector rack with all the necessary features and proven reliability can be the safest and most cost-effective solution for safeguarding your entire Ethernet network. With a response time of less than 100 ns, an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, and a compact design (26 x 26 x 68 mm), this rack-mounted surge protector is a versatile and reliable choice for your network infrastructure.
