Most people think about surge protectors at the breaker panel, but many electrical surges that can cause harm don’t just come through the power lines. These power surges, often created by lightning traveling through, the ground, can also find its way into ethernet and coaxial cables which connect directly to some of your most valuable electronics. EMP Shield’s ethernet and coaxial protection Devices are made to stop surges that come through these data and signal lines before they ruin your stuff.
Gaming computers these days cost a lot. A decent one can easily run you between $1,000 and $1,500, and top-of-the-line ones can go for $5,000 or more. And it’s not just the cost of the computer, because these systems usually hold important personal info, work files, and creative projects. A surge coming through the Ethernet cable from your modem, router, or network can fry parts inside or mess up your data in a snap. EMP Shield’s ethernet lightning protection is made to stop that surge and send the energy away from your computer, keeping both the hardware and your data safe.
TVs and home entertainment setups are also likely to get hit by surges. If you have a pricey TV hooked up to a coaxial cable for cable or satellite, or Ethernet for streaming, that connection can be a superhighway for surges from lightning. EMP Shield’s coaxial protector goes right in line with the cable connection and helps stop those strong surges from getting to your TV, cable box, or modem. This is really important for big, modern TVs that would cost thousands to replace.
These protectors also come in handy for solar systems and other smart devices that need Ethernet connections for checking on things, getting updates, or remote access. Even if the power system itself is safe, a unprotected Ethernet line can still let damaging energy in. EMP Shield’s Ethernet lightning protection gives you extra defense for systems that need data connections to work right.
Think of EMP Shield ethernet and coax protection as a one-time insurance payment. There’s no monthly bill, no renewing, and no subscription. Set it up, and it keeps watch all the time. For a pretty small, one-time cost compared to what it would take to replace your electronics, you get peace of mind and ongoing protection for your equipment and your data.
