Technical Information Sheet RJ12-PSTN

MULTI-STAGE MODULAR PROTECTION

Installation
Single-pair models are supplied with one socket and
one free plug. Two-pair models contain a socket on
each end, thus will normall require a patch lead to the
equipment.
Markings on the label show which way to orient the
protector. The LINE end must point towards the
incoming line; the EQUIPMENT end must point
towards the equipment to be protected.

Introduction
Continuous demand for powerful communications
solutions has driven developments in electronics,
transforming the traditional telephone network. These
developments allow greater functionality for telephone
users as well as the transmission of high-speed digital
data over existing copper telephone lines.

Plug the incoming line and the downstream equipment

into the corresponding sockets of the protector.

The sensitive components utilised in modern

communications equipment are vulnerable to damage
from transient overvoltages, caused by lightning and
mains disturbances.

Specifications

Novaris modular protection features high surge

handling capability, high bandwidth and low letthrough voltage, providing reliable protection for
equipment and users.

Operation
Two-stage protection is utilised, providing high energy
handling and low let-through. In an overvoltage
situation, the first stage, consisting of gas-filled
arresters, absorbs the majority of the surge energy. The
second stage, containing Novariss proprietry clamping
network, reduces the let-through voltage to the safest
possible level. All circuit elements return automatically
to their normal state after the disturbance has passed.
