Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fast-acting 0.50 A rating at 125 Vac / 60 Vdc ensures rapid interruption during overcurrent events, reducing damage to delicate telecom circuitry and shortening repair windows. This translates to lower maintenance costs and improved system uptime for data centers and operator networks. Application: telecom line cards, network interface modules, and data uplink gear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact dimensions (0.78 in L x 0.62 in H x 0.11 in W) and light 0.1 lb weight enable ready insertion into crowded enclosures and PCB terminations, delivering space savings and easier retrofits. Application: cabinet mounts, terminal blocks, and compact telecom assemblies. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Tin-plated beryllium copper terminals provide corrosion resistance and durable contact reliability, reducing contact resistance drift and extending service life in harsh environments. Application: outdoor telecom housings and indoor equipment with high vibration. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-indicating, color code red design simplifies visibility for fast identification during maintenance while avoiding false indications during routine checks. This lowers diagnostic time and minimizes sequence errors in spare parts planning. Application: centralized repair bays and on-site service iterations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: CE Marked and RoHS compliant with standard packaging ensures regulatory alignment across EU and global supply chains, streamlining compliance reporting and supplier audits. Application: multinational telecom deployments and data center rollouts.

FAQs

GMT-1/2A is designed for telecom and data equipment requiring precise overcurrent protection. It suits small-form-factor boards, network cards, and line interfaces where a 0.50 A, fast-acting fuse is appropriate. The tin-plated terminals and compact dimensions support straightforward integration into existing GMT-series assemblies and standard terminal blocks, helping minimize rework during upgrades.
The fuse is rated at 0.50 A with voltage ratings of 125 Vac and 60 Vdc, enabling protection across alternating and direct current telecom circuits. The fast-acting characteristic interrupts fault currents quickly, protecting sensitive components like line interfaces and data transceivers from transient surges and short-circuits, reducing the risk of equipment damage and costly downtime.
Yes. GMT-1/2A carries CE Marked and RoHS compliant certifications, indicating conformity with European regulatory requirements for electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and restricted hazardous substances. This supports global deployments and supplier qualification processes, helping you satisfy audit criteria and customer requirements.
Non-indicating fuses conceal the status until failure, reducing visual clutter in equipment racks. The red color code aids quick identification during servicing, while technicians rely on continuity checks and fuse replacement records rather than conflicting status indicators. The outcome is faster maintenance cycles and fewer mistaken parts during routine swaps.
By combining a compact footprint, reliable corrosion-resistant terminals, and a precise 0.50 A rating, GMT-1/2A minimizes space and installation time while reducing fault-related downtime. The CE RoHS compliance supports regulatory risk management, and the robust terminals lower replacement costs over time, contributing to lower total cost of ownership for telecom and data center infrastructure.
