Lightning Surge Arrestor w/ RP-SMA & SMA options, 900MHz, 2.4GHz, 5GHz options

Lightning Surge Arrestor w/ RP-SMA & SMA Options

Lightning Surge Arrestor with options for connectors & frequency-band:

Choose either RP-SMA connectors or SMA connectors: In either case, the unit will have a male connector on one side and a female connector on the other side.

Choose frequency band:  0GHz to 3GHz (includes 900MHz and 2.4GHz) or 5.1 to 5.8GHz band:

• The zero GHz to 3GHz model covers 900 MHz (LoRaWAN), 2.4GHz and they have a 90-volt Gas Discharge Tube element. ZigBee and Bluetooth are 2.4GHz band.
• 5GHz includes the frequency band 5.1 to 5.8GHz and these versions have a 240-volt Gas Discharge Tube element

SUMMARY SECTION

• Multi-strike protection capacity: Capable of protecting against multiple strikes
• Bi-Directional protection
• Excellent for IEEE 802.11b/g WiFi, ISM, PCS, Cellular, MMDS & other applications.
• SMA or RP-SMA connectors: Male on one end and female on the other
• Nickel-plated brass body for enhanced corrosion resistance: Nickel plating is the most weather-resistant, corrosion-resistant metal plating.

Enhanced Protection for RF Systems

This RF lightning surge arrestor is engineered to provide robust protection for sensitive wireless communication equipment against sudden electrical surges caused by lightning strikes or electrostatic discharge (ESD). By safely redirecting excess voltage to ground, the arrestor helps to prevent catastrophic damage to your antennas, access points, routers, and other network devices.

Versatile Frequency Range Support

Designed to accommodate multiple wireless frequency bands—including 900MHz, 2.4GHz, and 5GHz—this surge protector is suitable for a wide range of applications:

• IoT and ISM band deployments

• WiFi 4/5/6 networks (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax)

• Point-to-point and point-to-multipoint systems

• SCADA and telemetry systems

• Wireless surveillance and monitoring setups

Easy In-Line Installation

With its in-line connector configuration and low insertion loss design, this surge arrestor is ideal for retrofitting into existing coaxial runs. Simply insert the arrestor between your antenna cable and device to establish a protective barrier without significantly impacting signal strength or quality.

Applications Across Environments

Perfect for both indoor and outdoor installations when used with proper waterproofing techniques. Whether you're deploying in a rural agricultural setup or urban rooftop access point, this arrestor adds an essential layer of defense.

Maintenance-Free and Long-Lasting

The robust internal gas discharge tube design ensures high durability and consistent protection over time—no power supply or reset mechanism required. With proper grounding, it will continue to safeguard your RF infrastructure year-round.
