Category 6 Ethernet surge protector

The ITW Linx SurgeGate CAT6-LAN is a four-pair solid-state suppressor built for Category 6 data lines. It carries UL listings for Primary (497) and Isolated Loop (497B) applications and exceeds TIA/EIA standards 568 and 758 for Cat 5e performance. Modules attach to one another so protection can scale as the network grows. It suits campus links between buildings or harsh industrial sites needing isolated loop defence.

Installers needing UL 497 or 497B compliance

This unit fits projects that require a listed building-entrance protector for Ethernet cabling. It is not suited for installations that demand fibre-optic surge protection or coaxial line suppression. Buyers needing protection for non-Ethernet data interfaces should look at other product types.

1.5 in depth for tight enclosure fit

The suppressor measures 4.3 by 4.3 by 1.5 inches and weighs 6.72 oz, allowing it to sit in shallow cabinets or wall boxes where deeper devices cannot. This low profile is the key dimension when planning rack or junction-box layout.

Questions about this item

What Ethernet wiring standard must the existing cabling meet for the CAT6-LAN protector to function correctly?

The cabling must meet TIA/EIA 568 and 758 Category 5e performance standards, which the protector exceeds for solid-state protection.

Can the CAT6-LAN module be connected to additional SurgeGate units to protect a growing network?

Yes, the expandable system design allows multiple SurgeGate modules to be attached together as protection needs increase.

How can I verify the unit is providing active protection after installation?

The solid-state design operates without indicator lights; correct operation is confirmed when network traffic passes through without errors and the module remains physically intact.
