Need for Communication Line Surge Protection

摘要

Today's data equipment has become extremely vulnerable to a phenomenon known as voltage surges and electrical transients. A single IC package can contain over 100,000 memory bits and more than 5,000 logic gates. The high sensitivity due to the small size of the chips used in these packages makes them susceptible to quick degradation from voltage surges and transients. PLCs, MUXs, HUBs, RTUs, SCADA, and Telemetry equipment are especially vulnerable to electrical surges because of their low operation voltages.
