Abstract
An assembly mounted to a grounded chassis and connected between first and second multi-conductor cables carrying a plurality of transmission line-pairs. The assembly provides transient voltage surge protection to the plurality of line-pairs. The protective circuitry is mounted on a printed circuit board along with connectors and is contained within an insulative housing. The connectors of the assembly are mounted to the printed circuit board and are matable with connectors terminating multi-conductor cables so that the protective circuitry is interposed in the line-pairs carried by the cables.
