Abstract:
A rackmount I/O signal protector assembly for protecting telecommunications related equipment and other associated sensitive electrical components from transient voltage and current surges includes a housing enclosure, a printed circuit board disposed within the housing enclosure, and a surge protector network mounted on the printed circuit board and interconnected between an unprotected side and a protected side. The surge protector network includes gigabit surge protector circuitry formed of a plurality of voltage suppressor devices, current-limiting devices, diodes, and clamping devices. Input side connector devices are coupled to the unprotected side for connecting to incoming telecommunication lines. Output side connector devices are coupled to the protected side for connecting to customers' electrical equipment to be protected.
Abstract:
A surge protector for protecting telecommunications related equipment and other associated sensitive electrical components from over-voltage transient occurring on tip/ring conductors of communication lines coupled thereto includes a printed circuit board and surge protection circuits mounted on the printed circuit board. The surge protection circuits are interconnected between incoming tip and ring terminals defining an unprotected side and outgoing tip and ring terminals defining a protected side. Each of the surge protection circuits has a first set of steering diodes, a pair of series-connected voltage clamping devices, and a second set of steering diodes. Input side connector devices are coupled to the respective incoming tip and ring terminals for connecting to incoming telecommunication lines. Output side connector devices are coupled to the respective outgoing tip and ring terminals for connecting to customers' electrical equipment to be protected.
