Protecting Your Systems from Lightning and Electrical Surges
Outdoor communication systems — especially mast and antenna installations — are vulnerable to lightning strikes and electrical surges. These sudden events can destroy sensitive radios, repeaters, and IT hardware, causing costly downtime and equipment loss. The RF Surge Arrestor is designed to prevent this, diverting excess energy safely to ground while maintaining seamless RF performance.
A common model, such as the 375 W rated N-Female to N-Female unit, provides robust protection for professional installations. Compact and rugged, surge arrestors are a must-have safety layer in every communication network.
