Leviton Telcom M5633-T DS3 Line Arrester

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M5633-T is a DS3 line arrester designed to protect high-speed telecommunications and data transmission circuits from transient voltage events and surge conditions. This hardware accessory is built for structured cabling and telecom infrastructure environments where DS3-rated circuits require reliable surge protection at the demarcation or distribution point. Licensed telecommunications technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals typically install this device as part of a compliant surge protection scheme. It ships as a single unit and is classified within the hardware accessories category for structured cabling systems.

The M5633-T is suited for commercial and institutional telecommunications installations where DS3 circuits operate at 44.736 Mbps transmission rates. It is appropriate for use at network entry points, equipment rooms, and intermediate distribution frames where transient protection is required on active DS3 lines. This arrester is intended for professional installation in environments governed by applicable telecom and electrical codes.

Key Features

• Rated for DS3 telecommunications circuits requiring transient surge protection
• Single-unit packaging supports straightforward one-for-one replacement or new installation
• Hardware accessory classification confirms compatibility with structured cabling and telecom distribution infrastructure
• Compact form factor suited for equipment room and demarcation point deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for DS3 line protection applications in structured telecommunications cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or telecommunications technician in accordance with applicable NEC and local codes governing surge protective devices on telecommunications circuits. De-energize and disconnect the DS3 circuit before handling or terminating the arrester. Verify that grounding at the installation point meets code requirements, as proper earth bonding is critical to arrester performance. Do not install on circuits with voltage or signal ratings outside the DS3 specification.
