North Andover, MA - May 11, 2009 - L-com, a global leader in the manufacture of wired and wireless connectivity products today announced the addition of two new lightning and surge protectors to its broad product offering.

The HGLN-CAT5J is fully compatible with industry-standard 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) devices and 10/100 Base-T Ethernet networks, providing protection to both Ethernet data pairs as well as the PoE DC power feed. The unit supports both modes A and B of the 802.3af standard for supplying DC power.

The AL-D4W-DP is a high performance lightning protector and provides superior protection of DSL and Telephone lines from transients or surges caused by lightning strikes.
