Broadband Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) Protectors for Coaxial Surge Protection

HUBER+SUHNER 3401 and 3402 series GDT protectors deliver dependable broadband protection for coaxial transmission lines exposed to electromagnetic disturbances such as lightning-induced surges, electrostatic discharge (ESD), and nuclear electromagnetic pulses (NEMP). Engineered to protect RF equipment in critical infrastructure and defense applications, these protectors feature a voltage-triggered GDT that swiftly diverts surge energy to ground. The series 3401 supports operation up to 1 GHz, while series 3402 extends performance up to 3 GHz. Both models provide DC and AC continuity, making them ideal for systems with remotely powered devices. Key benefits include a replaceable GDT capsule, surge current handling capability up to 30 kA (8/20 µs), a variety of connector options such as N, TNC, and 7/16. Optional SEMPER self-extinguishing technology further enhances safety.
