An overvoltage protection module and an assembly of at least one telecommunications module and at least one overvoltage protection module

摘要

An overvoltage protection module (10) can be fitted to a telecommunications module having telecommunications contacts (24, 26), to which telecommunications lines are connectable, and has at least two overvoltage protectors (12, 14), at least one ground contact (36), and at least two pairs of protection module contacts (16, 18; 20, 22) for contacting the telecommunications contacts (24, 26) at contact points (28, 30, 32, 34), so that at least two telecommunications lines are protectable, wherein the contact points (28, 30; 32, 34) are located on at least two different levels, and both contacts (16, 18, 20, 22) of each pair of protection module contacts are connected to the same overvoltage protector (12, 14).
