DITEK Outdoor Surge Protector for PoE

DTK-MRJPOEX's NEMA 4X enclosure with liquid-tight cord grips provide a watertight connection in harsh environments

Model DTK-MRJPOEX from DITEK Surge Protection is an outdoor surge protector for Ethernet cabling. It provides an effective and cost-efficient solution to protect surveillance and security devices and systems. The hardened unit features a NEMA 4X rated enclosure with weatherproof connectors for installation in harsh or outdoor environments.

When used with STP cabling, the DTK-MRJPOEX requires no earth ground and has a field replaceable surge module. Its multi-stage technology and hybrid design provides superior protection for Ethernet devices. The outdoor surge protector is compatible with CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT6A cabling infrastructure and complies with IEEE Std. 802.3af and 802.3at standards for Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Other specifications include a surge current rating of 20kA/pair and gigabit data speed with no signal degradation. The outdoor surge protector is also PoE Plus, HiPoE ready for high wattage applications.

Model DTK-MRJPOEX will be featured this week at ASIS 2017 (booth #701). DITEK will be highlighting the vital importance of protecting security, fire, and other building systems from power surges and spikes that can damage or destroy equipment and data.

“Loss of security, surveillance and life/safety system operations is costly on many levels,” continued Mr. Klein. “The simple implementation of surge protectors, regardless of the source location, can ensure the continued operation of life/safety and security devices as intended.”
