Sientific Atlanta 712971 Surge-Gap Tap
Condition: New
Product Overview: The Scientific Atlanta 712971 Surge-Gap Tap is a rugged, two-way splitter built for reliability in cable TV and broadband network deployments. It belongs to the Surge-Gap™ family of passive taps, which boast IEEE-compliant 6 kV surge protection—far exceeding the typical 1 kV industry standard. This elevated surge tolerance offers superior defense against voltage spikes, making the unit particularly suited for areas with frequent lightning activity or unstable power conditions. Whether installed aerially or in pedestal setups, the 712971 ensures consistent signal distribution while safeguarding downstream equipment and improving overall network uptime.
Features
2-Way Splitter — Divides incoming RF signals into two outputs for versatile network branching.
Surge Protection: 6 kV — Provides high-level protection against power surges, greatly surpassing the standard 1 kV spec.
Passive Design — Requires no external power, simplifying integration into existing infrastructure.
Network Power Handling — Like others in the Surge-Gap line, it supports robust current capacities (e.g., up to 15–20 A in associated devices), enabling power pass-through for cable telephony and DOCSIS applications.
