FAQs
BK/GMT-10A is designed for straightforward panel mounting in telecom cabinets and data-center racks. Its compact dimensions (0.78 in L x 0.62 in H x 0.11 in W) and non-indicating design reduce clutter in crowded panels. Ensure compatible Bussmann GMT series mounting space and secure termination with tin-plated copper terminals for reliable contact over the service life.
BK/GMT-10A offers 10 A amperage rating with interrupt ratings of 300 AIC at 125 Vac and 450 AIC at 60 Vdc, and voltage ratings of 125 Vac and 60 Vdc. This combination provides fast fault clearing for typical telecom and data-center power paths while maintaining service continuity and minimizing fault energy in sensitive equipment.
Yes. The 10 A GMT fuse from Eaton’s GMT family is intended for telecom cabinets, data-center enclosures, and network equipment racks. Its compact form factor, non-indicating design, and robust terminals support high-density installations, while the GMT compatibility ensures predictable performance across multiple devices and supply rails in complex infrastructures.
BK/GMT-10A is CE marked and RoHS compliant, signaling adherence to European regulatory standards and environmental restrictions. This helps simplify regulatory approvals for global deployments and reduces risk in multi-country projects, especially in regulated sectors like telecommunications and IT infrastructure.
GMT fuses like BK/GMT-10A offer fast-acting protection with high interrupt ratings, reducing downtime during fault events. Their non-indicating design lowers panel clutter, while compatibility with GMT series simplifies stocking and replacements. Over time, this can lower maintenance labor costs and minimize unplanned outages in telecom and data-center environments.
