Eaton Specification Sheet - BK/GMT-Y
Key specifications and protection capabilities: The GMT-Y fuse is rated for 125 VAC and 60 VDC with interrupt ratings of 300 AIC at 125 VAC and 450 AIC at 60 VDC. This feature translates to fast fault isolation and reduced arc energy, limiting damage to telecom power supplies and line cards. Non-indicating design reduces visual indicators that can fail or drift, lowering maintenance costs and panel complexity. In practice, field technicians can swap the fuse quickly without chasing indicator lights, uptime improved during critical repairs. Physical footprint and packaging: approximately 4.5 in long, 4.3 in wide, and 0.8 in high, with standard packaging for easy stocking and inventory control. The compact size fits inside common telecom enclosures and mounted fuse holders. Certifications and compliance: CE Marked and RoHS Compliant, helping align with many regional procurement requirements and environmental guidelines. These certifications simplify cross-border deployments and supplier qualification processes. Compatibility and sourcing: Catalog BK/GMT-Y is designed for standard fuse holder systems and integrates with Eaton Bussmann series components. Availability of catalogs, datasheets, and multimedia resources supports design verification and faster project turnarounds. Operational efficiency and ROI: AIC ratings provide selective protection that can extend equipment life and reduce replacement costs, while straightforward installation reduces labor time.

FAQs
The BK/GMT-Y is Eaton Bussmann’s GMT series telecommunication fuse designed to protect network equipment and data lines. It supports a 125 VAC or 60 VDC supply and offers interrupt ratings of 300 AIC at 125 VAC and 450 AIC at 60 VDC. It is a non-indicating, standard-packaged fuse suitable for indoor telecom environments.
The BK/GMT-Y is rated for 125 VAC and 60 VDC operation with interrupt ratings of 300 AIC at 125 VAC and 450 AIC at 60 VDC. This combination supports reliable fault isolation in telecom power and data paths while minimizing nuisance trips. The data sheet also confirms a non-indicating device to reduce panel complexity.
Yes. The BK/GMT-Y is designed for compatibility with standard telecom fuse holders and mounting arrangements, featuring a compact footprint (approximately 4.5 in length by 4.3 in width and 0.8 in height). Its standard packaging supports easy installation, inventory management, and quick replacement in field and panel configurations. This reduces downtime during service calls and simplifies stocking for maintenance teams.
BK/GMT-Y carries CE marking and RoHS compliance, signaling adherence to essential EU safety and environmental standards. CE marking confirms conformity with applicable health, safety, and performance requirements, while RoHS limits hazardous substances, supporting regulatory compliance and safer disposal. These certifications help suppliers meet procurement policies and streamline cross-border deployments in communications networks environments.
The GMT-Y fuse provides selective protection for telecom power and data lines, reducing burn risk and false trips through precise interrupt ratings. By using 125 VAC and 60 VDC ratings with 300/450 AIC, equipment downtime is minimized, maintenance is simplified due to non-indicating operation, and lifecycle costs are improved through longer intervals between replacements. This translates to lower maintenance labor and fewer field failures.
