16 Port Gb PoE+ Surge Protector

Installation and

Operation Manual

Description

The IPPWR16 is designed to provide 16 channels of
surge protection for network devices. It can be used
with both PoE+ and non-PoE devices. The
IPPWR16 is cost-effective and ideally suited for
protecting multi-input devices such as a network
hub, NVR, or groups of IP cameras or servers. The
IPPWR16 is rack mountable in a standard 19” rack.
It installs in minutes and provides a single easy
access point for grounding.

Installation

The IPPWR16 must be properly installed to insure maximum protection. The function of the IPPWR16 is to
allow a surge to be routed to ground and to clamp the protected equipment video inputs to a minimum voltage.
There are three key points to remember when installing the IPPWR16. First, provide a low impedance
connection between the IPPWR16 and your protected equipment. This is best done by keeping the PROTECTED
Ethernet cable connections as short as possible, ideally less than 3 feet.
Second, the system should use a single ground point. Connect the grounding stud of the IPPWR16 to a single
ground point. A single ground point is a proper building ground to which equipment grounds are connected. Ideally,
the protected equipment should be isolated from ground. If the IPPWR16 and the protected equipment are both
grounded you will provide a parallel path to ground and a portion of the surge current can flow through that path.
Additionally, AC power line protectors should be used to complete your surge protection strategy.
Finally, the UNPROTECTED cables and wires should not be crossed with the PROTECTED cables and wires.
Crossing cables could provide a path for surge currents to bypass the IPPWR16 protection circuits.
