The Network Isolator prevents current flow resulting from differences in electrical potentials, and also protects connected devices and their users from stray external voltages and power surges which may be directly or inductively coupled onto the network lines by causes such as installation errors, lightning, switching operations, and electrostatic discharge. Built into a medical electrical (ME) product, the EMOSAFE EN-60 Network Isolator facilitates the safe Ethernet connection of this ME product within the patient environment. The EN-60 satisfies all construc- rd tion requirements of IEC 60601-1 (3 Edition) in the formation of two means of patient protection (MOPP) within the network interface, thereby practically eliminating the risk of electrical shocks arising from such stray external voltages at the network connection. With its UL approval, the EN-60 is also suitable for de- vices destined for export to the North American markets.

As a Keystone module, it can be used in all Keystone-compatible outlet sockets, patch panels, and panel cut-outs. The construc- tion with socket and cable stub provides the physical functionality of an extension cable. The EN-60KDS is further complemented by additional electrostatic discharge (ESD) and lightning strike protection. Normal network isolators do not suppress voltage spikes within individual signal lines. The EN-60KDS eliminates these spikes by means of a supplementary transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode circuit. This is particularly effective against the effects of electrostatic discharge, which can, for example, occur as cables are connected and removed. Low-frequency signal components are strongly attenuated, protecting connected devices from ground loops. The EMOSAFE EN-60KDS Network Isolator transmits high-frequency signals through the principle of elec- tro-magnetic induction. This results in the EN-60KDS not requiring any external power supply. There are no software drivers to be installed. 3 APPLICATIONS 3.1 PATIENT PROTECTION Electrical separation of Ethernet interfaces of medical electrical (ME) devices and systems, where patients must be protected from dangerous leakage currents, in conformity with applicable standards. 3.2 EQUIPMENT PROTECTION Applications, in which valuable devices or those requiring special protection need to be protected against ripple, mains hum, and surge voltages from the network periphery. 3.3 MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGY Electrical measuring and monitoring equipment, which needs to be protected against external and inter- ference voltages arising from the Ethernet periphery. 3.4 POTENTIAL DIFFERENCES (TECHNICAL BUILDING SYSTEMS) Computer systems, which are electrically connected with each other over significant distances via Ether- net cabling, where current flows caused by potential differences must be prevented. 3.5 AUDIO Audio applications, in which the transmission of low frequency alternating current voltages (mains hum) over the network connection is to be reduced to an imperceptible level.
