Edco TCS-T1 Series
T1 Line Protection Against Damaging Transients
Protection of your vital T1 lines should be part of the overall power protection plan for your facility.
The T1 Series provides you state-of-the-art protection in a small package.
T1 lines need protection from direct and indirect lightning, as well as power disturbances from
nearby AC lines. The Edco TCS-T1 Series prevents T1 line disturbances by providing a level of
protection typically not provided by the telephone company.
The Edco TCS-T1 Series devices combine highly reliable, nondegrading Silicon Avalanche Diode
(SAD) technology, along with high energy gas tube protection. This technology combination leverages
the best aspects of each protection method in a single, reliable design to ensure optimal performance.
The Edco TCS-T1 Series features two models with different clamping voltages. Both the Edco TCS-T1S and
the Edco TCS-T1DS support in-line connections via hardwire lugs or standard RJ-45 ports.
