  • Data Line Protectors (.pdf)
    In many office and industrial locations, data lines (such as RS-232 and ethernet) and AC power lines run in close proximity to each other, which often results in voltage spikes being induced onto the data line, causing damage to sensitive equipment. Protection Requirements Data lines should
