UHF Lightning Arrestor Surge Protector PL-259 Male To SO239 Female Bulkhead For HAM Radio Antennas With Grounding Screw Connection And Heavy Gauge Copper Ground Wire Option
UPC:
✔️ DC-1GHz, <0.1 dB loss, VSWR 1.2, 50Ω impedance, 1 piece
This UHF lightning arrestor keeps HAM radio coax lines safe from surge energy by shunting dangerous energy to ground. Run a piece of heavy gauge copper wire (8 or 10 gauge) from the grounding screw on the side of the arrestor to a 3 ft minimum length grounding rod driven into the ground for best protection. Mount it through a wall or inline at the equipment entry and enjoy reliable protection for your UHF/VHF gear.
