Data line surges make up an overwhelming majority of all surge-induced damages where the equipment was thought to be already protected but had a back door such as a modem line unprotected. Network interface cards, in particular, can be destroyed by relatively mild spikes. According to Ethernet standards (IEEE 802.3), non-AC network electrical hazards include: direct contact between components and power or lightning circuits, static charge buildup on cables and component, high-energy transients coupled onto the local cabling system (those induced by other cables which are installed in the general proximity of network cables or lightning within a mile radius) and potential differences (even from building to building, between safety grounds to which components are connected).

This is a network protection data line module for use in the APC PRM4 (PCC Sku 5470255) or PRM24 (PCC Sku 444496) rackmount modular data line surge protection system.

The PNETR5 module will protect the port of a Network Interface Card, hub or other local area network (LAN) equipment from damage caused by lightning-generated electrical transients. This module provides surge protection for 10Base-T, 100Base-T4, 100Base-TX, 100VG or Token Ring Type 3 UTP port (RJ-45), and VOIP applications. PNETR5 complies with applicable ISO/IEC Standard 8802-3 (IEEE 802.3) or 8802-5 (IEEE 802.5) requirements.

In applications where the network data transmission rate is high, insertion loss introduced by in-line devices becomes a significant consideration where cable lengths are particularly long. At the 100 Mbp/s data transmission rate, there is a small insertion loss introduced by the PNETR5. The ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard specifies a maximum UTP cable length of 100 meters per segment at 10/100 Mbp/s. For Thinnet, the maximum cable length is 185 meters (607 feet).
