RF surge protectors

13 June 2018 Circuit & System Protection

Pasternack has launched a new series of coaxial surge protectors that are designed to guard valuable communications equipment from power surges and indirect lightning strikes.

Its 46 new coaxial lightning arresters and surge protectors are ideal for use in cellular base stations, public safety systems, Wi-Fi networks, active antenna systems and GPS system applications.

The new surge protectors are available with 7/16 DIN, type-N and 4.3-10 connectors, and feature VSWR as low as 1,1:1, maximum power as high as 2 kW, multi-strike capability and low insertion loss. Additionally, these models support a frequency range of DC to 6 GHz and are CE and RoHS compliant. Most of these new surge protectors are IP67-rated for outdoor use and some models offer low-PIM performance. Furthermore, models are available with bracket mounting options and flexible bulkhead designs.
