Hi guys,
I operate 2 streams in the Sydney, NSW area. Going towards the summer time now, there are several large electrical storms that roll through my area in a week. Every time I turn the stream off and disconnect the antenna cables from my scanners in fear of lightning strikes. Overall this amounts up to a lot of downtime.
What do other stream providers use (hardware wise) to prevent damaged equipment from lightning strikes?
A couple of months back a power surge traveled through my ADSL router -> Wireless AP -> Switch -> Server
I had to replace all of the above. That is why I am overly paranoid I guess.
Thanks
