hi,

my query is not for a modem or computer but for an alarm system. what i want to do is connect the phone line to the alarm system so that if it is tripped when i am away from home, i will be notified via phone call.

the problem is lightning which could easily destroy the alarm console. what would be best item to reduce the chances of this happening? its just a direct connection from phone line to alarm console (won't be using the phone line for anything else).

thank you
