Protection of data lines (Ethernet Coaxial and Phone lines) ensures complete protection of your equipment from surges. It is very important to protect your equipment from back door electric surges traveling through data lines as they can be as damaging to your equipment as surges traveling over power lines. Reduces line noise that can cause data loss and keyboard errors. APC surge protectors undergo stringent testing by IEEE and are awarded “let-through ratings” which indicate the maximum voltage level that can possibly reach your equipment after a surge or voltage spike has passed through an electric surge protector. Lower IEEE let-through ratings indicate better protection and performance. The APC Essential SurgeArrest series offers optimal performance with a let-through rating of less than 330V for North American products and a rating of less than 15% for products sold worldwide. All APC products comply with local agency safety requirements including UL in North America and CE/Kema/Gost/C-tick/A-Tick/Telepermit in their respective regions.
