CATEGORY 5 PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SURGE PROTECTORS 2. Introduction 2.1 General Overview Devices connected to Category 5 cabling systems are routinely threatened by unwanted electrical energy from sources such as lightning, AC-power induction, and ESD. Higher-speed devices—such as those operating at 100 Mbps—are especially vulnerable to the effects of these hazards, which can include data loss and hardware damage. -

CATEGORY 5 PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SURGE PROTECTORS 3. Installation The Category 5 Surge Protectors are easy to install and are designed to be transparent to your network while they operate. This section describes the applications for which each model is designed and the procedures that you will use to install each model. - Page 10 CHAPTER 3: Installation 3.1.2 T (SP250A) RIMARY URGE ROTECTOR The Primary Surge Protector (PSP) is a more robust protector than the Secondary Surge Protector, and is designed for use as a barrier protector on LAN equipment in campus networks. Applications include cable runs between buildings, cable runs between floors on multi-story structures, and as a higher-capacity replacement for the SSP.
