ESP CAT-6/POE - FURSE - Datasheet.Live

Use these protectors on network cables that travel between buildings to

prevent damage to equipment, e.g. computers, servers, repeaters and hubs.

Suitable for computer networks up to Cat-6 cabling.

✔To protect up to 100baseT and up to 1000baseT networks with

Cat-5/Cat-5e cabling use ESP Cat-5e and ESP Cat-5e/Gb respectively

✔To protect up to 10GbaseT networks with Cat-6 cabling use ESP Cat-6

✔To protect up to 100baseT, 1000baseT and 10GbaseT Power over

Ethernet (PoE) networks use ESP Cat-5e/PoE, ESP Cat-5e/Gb/PoE and

ESP Cat-6/PoE respectively

ESP Cat-5 & Cat-6 Series NEW

Technical note

The interfaces used in Ethernet

networks incorporate an

isolation transformer which

gives these systems an inbuilt

immunity to transients

between line and earth of

1,500 Volts or more.

✔Suitable for systems signalling on up to eight wires of either shielded

or unshielded twisted pair cable

✔Very low let-through voltage (enhanced protection to BS EN 62305)

between all lines - Full Mode protection

✔Full mode design capable of handling partial lightning currents as well

as allowing continual operation of protected equipment

✔Repeated protection in lightning intense environments

✔Unlike some competing devices, the ethernet SPDs provide effective

protection without impairing the system’s normal operation

✔Low capacitance circuitry prevents the start-up signal degradation

associated with other types of network protector

✔Low in-line resistance minimises unnecessary reductions in signal

strength to maximise signalling distance

✔Sturdy ABS housing with convenient holes for flat mounting, or

vertically via TS35 ‘Top Hat’ DIN rail

✔Substantial earth connection to enable effective earthing

✔Supplied with short (50 cm) Cat-5e UTP or Cat-6 STP cable to enable

neat installation

Features and benefits

Application

Combined Category D, C, B tested protector (to BS EN 61643)

suitable to protect twisted pair Ethernet networks, including

Power over Ethernet (PoE), with RJ45 connections. For use at

boundaries up to LPZ 0Bto protect against flashover (typically the

service entrance location) through to LPZ 3 to protect sensitive

electronic equipment.

ESP CAT5e/UTP-1

1 metre cable with unshielded

RJ45 connections

ESP CAT6/STP-1

1 metre screened cable with

shielded RJ45 connections

Accessories

Connect in series with the network

cable, either:

a) near to where it enters or

leaves the building, or

b) as it enters the network hub,

c) close to the equipment being

protected

This should be close to the system’s

earth star point (to enable a good

connection to earth).

ESP Cat-5 & Cat-6 Series

NEW

To protect datacomms systems based on twisted pairs, use the ESP D, E or H Series. Local

protection for networked equipment is also available. For protection of legacy coaxial Ethernet

networks, please contact us for details of our ESP ThinNet and ESP ThickNet protectors.

2Data pairs 1/2 and 3/6 are protected as standard. Pairs 4/5 and

7/8 are also protected on Gigabit (Gb) & Cat-6 barriers.

3PoE protectors transmit power to IEEE 802.3af.

ESP Cat-5e/PoE using Mode A (combined phantom power/data)

and Mode B (power on spare pairs 4/5 and 7/8),

ESP Cat-5e/Gb/PoE and ESP Cat-6/PoE using Mode A (combined

phantom power/data) only.

4Based on 15.4 W of transmitted PSE power, to IEEE 802.3af.

5The maximum transient voltage let-through of the protector

throughout the test (±10%), line to line & line to earth. Response

time <10 ns (on all protected pairs).

6The interfaces used in Cat-5/5e systems incorporate an isolation

transformer that inherently provides an inbuilt immunity to

transients between line and earth of 1,500 Volts or more.

7Test to IEC 61000-4-5:2006, ITU-T (formerly CCITT) K.20, K.21

and K.45,Telcordia GR-1089-CORE, Issue 2:2002,

ANSI TIA/EIA/IS-968-A:2002 (formerly FCC Part 68).

8The first number is for the data pair, with the second number for

the power pair.

9The installation and connectors external to the protector may

limit the capability of the protector.
