Overview

Vigitron’s Vi20201 is an industrial-grade PoE surge protector designed to safeguard 1G, 2.5G, 5G,10G high-speed Ethernet networks from damaging voltage spikes and power surges. Engineered for mission-critical applications, it offers seamless compatibility with IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PoE standards and supports up to 95W of power. Its ultra-compact design allows for DIN Rail or wall mounting, making it ideal for tight installations such as camera housings, roadside cabinets, and industrial enclosures.

The Vi20201 can be grounded using a built-in ground screw or a shielded RJ45 cable connected to a grounded Ethernet port or a grounded DIN Rail connection. It is built for rugged environments and operates within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, and meets IEC/EN 61643-21 and EN 61000-4-5 Class 4 surge protection standards. With three mounting option; DIN-rail, wall, and direct port connection, the Vi20201 is designed for quick and easy installation in virtually any environment.

Vigitron’s advanced surge suppression technology provides reliable protection, reducing downtime and extending network infrastructure longevity.
