Technical Specifications
The SURGEPR provides transparent pass-through operation—no signal degradation or power loss during normal conditions. The device requires connection to an approved earth ground to function effectively during surge events. Verify compatibility with your specific PoE standard before installation, as different camera systems may operate under 802.3af (15.4W), 802.3at (30W), or 802.3bt (90W+) delivery protocols.
Applications
Ideal for outdoor camera installations, rooftop deployments, perimeter monitoring, and any surveillance configuration where lightning risk is elevated. Commonly used in commercial, industrial, and enterprise surveillance networks to protect both camera hardware and expensive upstream switching infrastructure. Recommended for facilities in geographic regions with high thunderstorm activity or areas with repeated power quality incidents.
Installation & Deployment
Position the SURGEPR between your PoE power source and camera connection. Ground the unit to a qualified earth ground point following local electrical codes. This accessory integrates seamlessly into professional Pelco surveillance systems and supports enterprise-grade deployment standards across commercial and industrial environments.
