Protect Your Access Points With Erico's MWE Series

The growth and increasing demand of high-speed wireless internet and data network access has led to a proliferation of access points (base stations) and subscriber units. For maximum communication range, these access points are typically located at the highest point possible. However, maximum range increases the possibility of lightning-induced surges and provides a point for static charges to collect, due to the high positioning of these access points.

To prevent lightning-induced surges, protect your equipment, and ensure maximum coverage, you need Erico’s surge protectors. Erico developed rugged, weatherproof hybrid surge protectors, which can endure up to 25 kA of lightning-induced current. Erico’s MWE series is ideal for tower or rooftop-mounted radio units and offers high surge-protection capabilities in weatherproof enclosures.
