PREGUNTAS FRECUENTES
Common questions about LY21-2 16-port and 24-port RJ45 network surge protector selection.
What is the LY21-2 CAT16/CAT24 surge protector used for?
It provides centralized surge protection for sixteen or twenty-four RJ45 Ethernet data lines connected to switches, servers, modems, monitoring systems, and other network equipment.
What is the difference between CAT16 and CAT24?
CAT16 protects sixteen independent RJ45 network channels, while CAT24 protects twenty-four channels. In this product name, CAT16 and CAT24 describe the port configuration rather than an Ethernet cable category.
Is this model suitable for PoE networks?
The listed CAT16/CAT24 version is designed for network data lines and does not include the separate 60V PoE power-section ratings shown for the LY21-2 PoE model. Use a confirmed PoE-compatible protector for powered Ethernet equipment.
What Ethernet speed does the protector support?
The listed maximum transmission rate is 100Mbps. Do not describe the product as Gigabit-compatible unless separate test data confirms Gigabit Ethernet performance.
Where should the multi-port protector be installed?
Install it in the network or security cabinet near the protected switch, server, modem, network recorder, or other centralized network equipment.
What should be confirmed before ordering?
Confirm whether sixteen or twenty-four ports are required, whether the network is PoE or non-PoE, the Ethernet speed, RJ45 pin configuration, cable category, grounding method, cabinet space, and required surge withstand level.
