Telephone Building Entrance Station Protection

1360 Series

Model 1360 Asymmetrical Operation
Model 1360B Balanced Operation

The models 1360 and 1360B are designed to provide superior transient and power fault protection for most standard station protection applications. The characteristics of the solid state protector are far superior to gas tube technology in speed of response to faults and are virtually immune to overshoot, aging, and repeated tripping within rated limits. The balanced configuration (model 1360B) provides the best protection against line to line metallic surges where the transient on one side slightly lags the other. A surge on either side of the line will cause both sides of the device to fire providing simultaneous grounding. Nominal breakdown voltage for both devices is 300VDC.

All station protectors come with an external fail-safe mechanism that ensures safe operation even under the most adverse conditions. Under continuous surge conditions, the device will short both sides of the circuit to ground.

Application:

The models 1360 and 1360B station protectors are well suited to single or dual pair applications in residences and other low pair count customer premise installations where superior transient protection is desired. Industry standard design allows installation into most standard Network Interface Devices.
