2470 Series 5-Pin TBU® Surge Protector
Bourns® 2470 Series 5-Pin TBU® Protector is a new generation of telecommunications protector designed for protection of
sensitive high-speed network data circuits. Bourns® 2470 Series 5-Pin TBU® Protector integrates four advanced technologies: Our
proprietary advanced balanced TRIGARD® GDT, precision matched Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs), a patented Switch-Grade Fail-Short
mechanism, and our patented Transient Blocking Unit (TBU®) device that protects the circuit by rapidly switching to a blocking state.
These technologies are combined to provide robust overvoltage and fast, resettable sneak-current protection with extremely low surge
let-through. Additionally, the 2470 Series has very low loss characteristics making it the ultimate choice for protection of sensitive, high
speed communication lines.

Notes:
The 2470 Series protectors are not to be used over powered spans.
1 Line to Line voltage is approximately 1.8 times the stated Line to Ground breakdown voltage.
2 See insertion and return loss charts on page 2.
3 Designers should note that deliberate DC bias such as sealing current or remote powering can hold the TBU® device in a blocking
state after a fault has passed.
4 Network applied.
5 Surpasses Telcordia GR 974.
6 Exceeds Telcordia GR 1361.
7 RUS PE-80.
