Bourns Expands Surge Protection Portfolio with TISP Protector for VDSL and G.fast Applications

RIVERSIDE, Calif., December 15, 2015 - Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components, today announced it has expanded its line of TISP surge protector devices with a new device designed for ADSL, VDSL and G.fast applications. Designated Model TISP4G024L1W, Bourns latest surge protector is designed to be placed between the xDSL line driver device and the transformer, protecting the line driver from overvoltage conditions. It features a low capacitance variation of 0.02 pF to ensure minimal impact to the signal integrity of the high speed interface the device is protecting.

The Model TISP4G024L1W has a surge capability of 30 A (8/20 μs) that helps developers comply with various international standards such as ITU-T K.20, K.21 or K.45, Telcordia GR-1089-CORE and YD/T for xDSL interfaces.

"Offering low capacitance and low distortion surge protection, Bourns' new TISP device is an optimal solution for G.fast equipment, xDSL modems and line cards," said Ben Huang, Product Line Manager at Bourns, Inc. "We saw a need to help our G.fast application customers implement ultra-fast data speeds so that service providers can economically extend the life of existing copper infrastructure and offer high bandwidth, low latency, broadband access. Protection of these lines is critical to meeting telecom standards and also ensuring the highest reliability for the end user."
