INDOOR POE BLIKSEMBEVEILIGING

Protect your network infrastructure with the Microchip PD-IN/SP11, engineered to withstand surge currents up to 10 kA (8/20 µs) and support Power over Ethernet up to 90W. This compact device safeguards both data and power lines for Gigabit Ethernet connections, ensuring uninterrupted operation in demanding indoor environments.

Overview

The PD-IN/SP11 is a dedicated surge protector for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It is designed to shield sensitive network equipment—such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones—from transient voltage spikes caused by lightning or switching events. With support for IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standards, it accommodates PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ devices, delivering up to 90W of power while maintaining full 10/100/1000 Mbps data throughput. The unit features two shielded RJ45 ports (input and output) and an external grounding terminal for reliable protection.

What stands out

• High surge capacity: 10 kA max discharge current (8/20 µs) and 5 kA nominal discharge current.
• Low clamping voltages: 72V line-to-ground and 5V line-to-line for superior protection.
• Ultra-fast response time: less than 1 nanosecond, minimizing exposure to transients.
• Broad PoE compatibility: supports 802.3af/at/bt up to 90W, future-proofing your deployment.
• Durable flame-retardant ABS housing with desktop or wall-mount options.
