Panamax MOD-CAT5 Cat5 Ethernet Protection Module

Product Description

The PANAMAX MOD-CAT5 is a Cat5 Ethernet protection module designed for use in AV power management systems. It provides surge and noise protection on Cat5 network lines, helping safeguard connected equipment from voltage transients and electrical interference. The module installs into compatible PANAMAX power management units and is typically handled by AV integrators, low-voltage technicians, or electricians working on structured wiring and home automation systems.

The MOD-CAT5 is suited for residential and light commercial AV installations where network-connected components require protection at the distribution point. It fits into modular expansion bays on compatible PANAMAX power management platforms, allowing technicians to add Cat5 line protection without separate inline devices. Typical applications include rack-mounted AV systems, home theater installations, and network distribution points where Cat5 runs terminate at a central equipment location.

Key Features

• Cat5 Ethernet line protection for AV power management systems
• Modular design installs directly into compatible PANAMAX units

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or AV integrator. Power down the host PANAMAX unit before inserting or removing any module. Follow the host unit manufacturer documentation for proper module seating and retention. Verify all Cat5 terminations meet TIA-568 standards before commissioning the system.
