Ari,

Circuit diagram is EN61000-4-5: Figure 10.  My coil was 20mH coil:
www.wilcocorp.com P/N HFT-203 which has a DC resistance, R(L), of 2 ohms.

The key is minimizing R(L).  Ethernet incorporates internal
threshold-detection and noise-rejection; low level signals are rejected both
devices on the link.  Twisted-Pair Ethernet is transformer-isolated at each
end to eliminate DC; signal is inherently limited due to 100-ohm source
impedence.

David,
if you have a decoupling circuit that keeps the surge away but passes
ethernet,
how about posting the details here?
Lots of us would be most interested!
