ABSTRACT:
A hybrid surge protector architecture is configured to accommodate a plurality of replaceable L-shaped communication signal surge protection modules and a multi receptacle AC voltage terminal strip in the same housing architecture. The modules may be configured to provide surge protection for different types of communications signal lines. The hybrid surge protector has a housing structure which contains a floor, a vertical wall and convex cover. A first portion of the wall has an opening in which an AC voltage terminal strip is installed. A second portion of the wall has an aperture for a plurality of communication signal surge protection circuit modules. Hot and neutral leads of the terminal strip are coupled to input ports of the AC voltage surge protection circuit. A reference ground conductor for the terminal strip and the AC voltage surge protection circuit is mounted along the housing floor adjacent to the terminal strip. Distributed along the housing floor adjacent to and connected to the AC voltage terminal strip are a plurality of electrical connectors, which are arranged to receive and physically capture ground conductor elements of respective ones of the removable communication signal surge protection circuit modules. Flexible tabs of the modules are captured by slots in the housing floor to facilitate insertion and removal.
