D-Link Ethernet Surge Protectors Beat Competitors in Surge Test


FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Nov. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Out of 11 total devices surge tested by Nlightning Technology, the D-Link DPE-SP110 and DPE-SP110I surge protectors were the only ones to pass the IEC 61643-21 and ITU-T K.21 tests, D-Link announced today. All of the other surge protectors failed to protect the networking equipment from electrical damage, proving the D-Link surge protectors' effectiveness in preventing damage caused by sudden electrical surges and electrostatic discharges.

The D-Link DPE-SP110 and DPE-SP110I were the only two surge protectors to pass Nlightning Technology’s IEC 61643-21 and ITU-T K.21 surge tests.

"A surge protector's main job is to protect both the networking equipment and remote devices connected to it," said Steven Olen, director of product marketing, D-Link Systems.  "If it can't do that, then every device connected to it either directly or indirectly is at risk of damage."

According to Nlightning Technology, lightning strikes caused approximately $740 million dollars worth of damage in 2014, and lightning can affect devices as far away as 300 miles from the initial strike.

The outdoor DPE-SP110 an indoor DPE-SP110I can provide powerful protection for switches, IP cameras, access points and other networking devices, as they can ensure continuous, non-interrupted service and reduced downtime and maintenance costs—even in harsh environments. Both use a durable metal design and feature 10kA Impulse Discharge Current to help ensure stable protection.
