DC-BLOCK-3-NMF-1
DC Block
Rev : B | Rev date : 03 May 2024
This DC Block is used to prevent the flow of direct current and low frequency current surges along the inner and outer conductors of a transmission line, while permitting the unimpeded flow of RF signals. Applications include the blocking of current surges in subway tunnels. The unit consists of a length of coaxial line with a series capacitor in both the center conductor and outer conductor to block the flow of low frequencies, while passing RF with negligible loss or reflections.
FEATURES / BENEFITS
• Multi-Band Frequency Range
• 3 kV High Voltage Rating
• Minimal RF Insertion Loss
• Very Low Passive IM
• RoHS Compliant
• High Reliability
• N male/female connector
