Hello. I’d like to install outdoor router behind window and power it using PoE. What should I do to protect my home equipment against consequences of router being hit by lightning? (I mean how should i isolate home electrical circuit from lightning being carried over ethernet). Is RBGESP working with PoE?
If I were to use RBGESP I assume I should put it outside together with outdoor router right? Or inside?
Which one of those is proper way to connect RBGESP? (red cable is that short RBGESP tail)
I would not allow the discharge through the cable screen to reach the RB. The external screen of the wires is usually grounded (if long, then in stages), but the last stage should not be used, if only for the inner core screen. But MT will not make such solutions, it is not carrier grade (even an RBGESP wire looks indoor and it would be foolish to put it outside and also this level of lightning protection will not protect, if only from indirect impact field), but it can be done by themselves, even through a patch panels, couplers, etc. The key is also to provide the right wiring.
Such a solution should be marketed to aunts in the market.
