The archived June 2001 Curtis website additionally depicts wall-mounted surge protectors identified as models SP500 and SP550. These products share a substantially similar enclosure design with the Curtis SP-600 documented by the OldSurge Archive, suggesting that the SP-600 belonged to the same product family.
The archived page was located within a "Legacy" section of the Curtis website. The significance of this designation is unknown, but it may indicate that the products represented an older or discontinued product family by June 2001.
