Inline gigabit surge protector for PoE network runs — protects expensive PoE switches and camera-end electronics from lightning-induced surges on long outdoor cable runs.
Deployment context
Outdoor camera cable runs entering the building, perimeter installations, rooftop or pole-mounted cameras vulnerable to nearby lightning strikes, gatehouse-to-MDF links crossing exposed ground.
Port count & PoE budget
1× RJ45 in / 1× RJ45 out (gigabit pass-through). Passes PoE/PoE+ (802.3af/at) up to 60V DC. No additional power required.
VLAN & management capabilities
Transparent — passes VLAN tags and management frames unchanged.
Surveillance infrastructure implications
Recommended on every outdoor cable run between the building and the network closet — even modest nearby lightning strikes can cascade-fry a 24-port switch through a single compromised cable.
Thermal / rack / power considerations
-20°C to +70°C operating range. IP30 enclosure (interior placement). Grounding stud required.
