Pasternack RF Coaxial Lightning Surge Protectors
Pasternack RF Coaxial Lightning Surge Protectors are passive RF protection devices designed to safeguard sensitive communication and networking equipment from lightning-induced surges and high-energy Electro-Magnetic Pulses (EMP). These surge protectors are engineered to pass the desired RF signals while suppressing damaging surge currents, making them ideal for antenna and outdoor RF installations. The RF surge lightning arrestors feature replaceable gas discharge cartridges and grounding terminals for enhanced protection and reliable grounding. Available with various coaxial connector interfaces, they support frequencies from DC up to 3GHz and offer surge-handling capabilities of up to 2000W. The RF coaxial lightning surge protectors are compliant with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, ensuring suitability for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications.
