Introducing the Ethernet Surge Protector,
model ETH-SP, from Ubiquiti Networks.
The ETH-SP is a cost-effective solution for

Datasheet

protecting outdoor Ethernet devices from
damaging electrostatic discharge and
surges. Since all Ubiquiti® airMAX® devices
already have robust ESD protection built
in, adding the ETH-SP to the installation
provides an additional layer of protection
to the network.

The ETH-SP is engineered to protect
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) or non-PoE
devices with connection speeds of up to

1Gbps. Two passive, surge-protected RJ45

connections provide maximum equipment
compatibility.

Ideal for WISP Networks

All Ubiquiti airMAX devices are equipped
with ESD protection. However, to protect
outdoor devices, and to meet certain local
code requirements, installing the ETH-SP is
essential.

For example, to guard against costly
service calls, and to help your subscriber
installations meet code requirements,
install two ETH-SPs: one near the CPE, and
the other at the entry point to the building.
Damaging ESD attacks and surges will
be absorbed by the ETH-SPs and safely
discharged into the ground.
