The compact design offers rapid-replacement surge protection modules with shielded RJ45 connections and is ideal for smaller installations that do not require large rack-mounted protection systems.

“Smaller installations need just as much network surge protection as large installations – in fact, they may be even more dependent on each circuit,” said Jason Klein, National Sales Manager, DITEK. “Now it is easier than ever to include best-in-breed protection as a part of every project.”

Two versions are available: DTK-WM4NETS is a 4-channel Ethernet and PoE surge protector, while DTK-WM4EXTS is a 4-channel PoE Extender surge protector. Both versions use the same award-winning design as the company’s popular rack-mount models, but in a compact package with simple, versatile mounting. The modular design allows for rapid replacement measured in seconds, and the protection modules are the same as the larger rack-mount devices, so one set of spares will support a full range of installations.

DITEK’s state-of-the-art network protection circuitry features a hybrid design with both Silicon Avalanche Diode (SAD) and Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) technologies for the best IP network protection available in the market; and the field-replaceable protection modules offer a robust 20kA per pair surge current capacity – the highest available for shielded network devices. All models are compatible with CAT5e, CAT6 and CAT6A cabling infrastructure.
