PROBLEM:

Rural electronic sites are particularly exposed to lightning GPR in spite of the best conventional protection. Severe storm tracks and resistive earth (sandy clay, limestone, granite) combine to momentarily saturate grounding systems with high frequency energy. Lightning then creates a path to lower ground through the conductive electronics.

SOLUTION: LIGHTNING SHIELD

• Detects imminent lightning and eliminates the potential fault path through the electronics for the duration of the threat

• Remote management to monitor events and routinely test the site generator or battery plant

• Low cost of ownership; payback in one lightning storm

The Carson 1730-24 stands alone as the central location for most of the buried FTTP design – Either or both, the central point of the Tether Design or a Central Splice Location

The 1730 has 9.7cu.ft. of open space compared to 5 cu.ft. in a “straight wall” 1730 box and actually more room than a “straight wall” 2436 (9.4 cu.ft.). (Bottom measurement is 24”x42”). Due to the flared out design, the 1730 will accommodate all the slack of distribution, service and tether cables.

Use the 1730 for 6-8-12 port terminal mounting and /or splice case mounting. Make the 1730 the center ofthe “Tether design”

Customized field termination is now made possible for all environments, including outside plant, with Sumitomo’s Lynx—CustomFit Splice-On Connector. It provides advantages over conventional termination methods, namely preterminated jumpers and mechanical splices. Read the rest of this entry »
