Discussion on some of the qualities of 10 GbE PoE++ data networks, the surge protection challenges they present, and how one surge protection technology, SASD, is meeting those challenges. We conclude with information about a new Transtector SPD that is designed to protect 10 GbE PoE++ networks.... Read more

This blog post explains what splitters and injectors can do for your PoE deployment. It also covers some terms you will encounter while shopping for splitters and injectors − such as the difference between “mid-span” and “end-span” devices, and the significance of a few key standards that regulate the design of these products....

Not all power cable is created equal. Most cables that are made for standard indoor use would not last long outdoors under the elements or even indoors on a factory floor. That’s why TC-ER power cable was developed.... Read more

Customizing your surge protection means choosing products specifically designed for a certain purpose. Whether it’s a rack-mount PDU or a HEMP-tested SPD, when your equipment operates within the exact electrical parameters, tolerances and environmental conditions it was intended for, it will perform better and last longer. Less maintenance will save you money.... Read more

If you want surge protection for a bunch of data lines in a compact space, including mixed signal protocols in the same location, check out our CPX series rack-mount surge protection devices. These indoor guardians will protect up to 16 data lines from being damaged by energy spikes caused by lightning and other sources of transient voltage – and they take up only 1U of rack space....
