After a severe lightning storm Thu nite, a customer's shop is still down. The AS/400 runs fine. The 400 & most network equip on large UPS all survived. (Their network tech put some RAS servers outside computer room & they died-idiot). All the hubs in office damaged. My question is the CISCO router. Was on UPS & powers up ok, but the tech described the CSU/DSU port as "fried". Is there such a thing as T1 cable surge suppression? I asked router tech & he has no clue. I asked telco tech & he had no clue.
