Electrical rating and safety margin define how this fuse protects telecom power rails. With a 5 A amperage rating and 160 Vdc maximum, it interrupts fault currents before damage spreads, reducing equipment downtime and protecting sensitive electronics in telecom and data-center gear. This rating supports reliable performance in standard DC distribution panels where quick response is essential. Physical connection and termination matter for fast, repeatable installs. The 80D-5 uses ferrule ends on both ends, enabling clean, secure terminations in common telecommunication fuse holders and panel assemblies. The ferrule design minimizes wire fatigue and contact resistance, translating to longer life in harsh environments. Cylindrical form and green color code aid rapid visual verification during maintenance and stock checks. Its cylindrical shape supports straightforward insertion into standard fuse clips, while the color code helps technicians distinguish it from other protection devices. This combination reduces installation errors in high-throughput environments like data centers. Non-indicating operation keeps replacement costs down and avoids unnecessary indicators in critical control racks. For many telecom applications, a simple interrupt function is enough to protect circuits; indicatorless fuses reduce maintenance complexity. If status indication is required, operators can pair the device with external monitoring solutions. Compact dimensions and standard packaging streamline stocking and replacement. Product dimensions show a length of 0.28 inches by 0.28 inches width and 2.685 inches height, with a weight around 0.5 pounds, making it suitable for tight installations. As part of the Eaton Bussmann Type 80 family, 80D-5 integrates with common telecom protection schemes and supports quick swaps.

FAQs
The 80D-5 is designed for ferrule-end connections and fits standard telecommunication fuse holders used in telecom racks, data centers, and control panels. It integrates with the Eaton Bussmann Type 80 protection family for consistent replacement across equipment from switching gear to DC distribution frames. Ensure the holder accepts ferrule-end fuses and that the circuit rating aligns with a 5 A, 160 Vdc profile for safe operation.
Key specs are a 5 A amperage rating and a 160 Vdc maximum voltage rating, which determine the fault current interruption capability and voltage withstand in DC telecom circuits. These ratings ensure protection of sensitive telecom electronics while minimizing nuisance trips. The fuse’s non-indicating nature means status checks rely on external monitoring or panel indicators, affecting maintenance workflow and alarm design.
80D-5 is well suited for telecom equipment, data-center power rails, and control-panel assemblies where compact form factor and reliable overcurrent protection are needed. Its ferrule-end design supports quick field swaps in standard fuse clips, while the CE marking confirms compliance with European safety regulations, making it a solid fit for distributed telecom infrastructure.
The provided data indicates CE Marked compliance for the 80D-5, aligning with European safety requirements. No other certifications are listed in the datasheet. When designing systems for global deployments, verify whether additional certifications such as UL or IP ratings are required for your specific region or application and consider external verification if needed.
Using the 80D-5 can improve uptime by providing predictable, fast-acting protection for telecom circuits, reducing the risk of cascading failures. Its non-indicating design lowers upfront and maintenance costs, while ferrule-end terminations and standard packaging shorten replacement time and inventory management. For ROI, factor in reduced downtime, easier stocking, and compatibility with existing Bussmann Type 80 protections in your network.
