Oh, they definitely help. We have a few towers that radios were getting fried on 2-3 times a year, and after adding the surge suppressors, I don't think we've lost a single radio... had to replace a few SS cards, but that's a much more desirable problem.
Of course most of those are the GIGE, not CAT6, but I don't think we've lost anything that's on a CAT6 yet.
