TCP500 & TCP2

Product features

•

Designed to protect Consumer Premises

Equipment from harmful overcurrents.

•

Allows compliance with telecom regulatory

standards including UL 1950/60950, and FCC

part 68. Application circuit testing is

recommended.

•

Eliminates the need for a current limiting

resistor.
