The Ethernet port arrester is only for the 10M/100M copper Ethernet ports with the RJ-45 connector;
The Ethernet port arrester is not provided, the user can purchase them to address their own pratical
requirements. For the detailed information for the arrester installation, please refer to Ethenet Port Arrester
Hardware Installation Guide, which contains the technical specification and the maintenance and installation of the
arrester.
You should pay attention to the following conditions during the actual installation to avoid influencing the performance of
the Ethernet port arrester:
Reversed direction of the arrester installation. You shall connect the external network cable to the “IN” end and
connect the switch Ethernet port to the “OUT” end.
Poor arrester grounding. The length of the grounding line should be as short as possible to ensure that it is in good
contact with the switch grounding terminal. Use the multimeter to confirm the contact condition after the grounding.
Incomplete arrester installation. If there is more than one port connected to the peer device on the switch, it entails
installation of arresters on all connection ports for the purpose of lightning protection.
