Antenex®
Stops Lightning Cold with the TrapperTM


Schaumburg, IL. - You can almost hear
it say "Hit me with your best shot!" The Antenex Trapper
lightning arrester helps prevent costly repairs to sensitive
radio equipment due to high-energy transients during lightning
strikes. Available in an inline or bulkhead mount, the lightning
TrapperTM arresters
are ready to bear the burden of protecting your high valued
RF equipment.
The gold anodized TrapperTM
limits surges to 45 volts in approximately 100 nanoseconds.
A gas discharge tube changes from an open circuit to a short
circuit in the presence of voltage surge giving those surges
a direct path to ground, thus protecting yoTM is designed
with a rugged, yet attractive housing with high quality plated
brass "N" connectors and a user replaceable gas discharge
tube. From 0-1000 MHz one model covers the entire LMR spectrum.
Insertion loss is less than 0.1dB up to 500 MHz. and < 0.25dB
up to 1000 MHz. Do not install another antenna without one!

to be sensitive to both electric and magnetic fields of signal.
The Phantom®
will work in areas where others have failed.
Available in three distinct frequency ranges:
144-148, 150-162, and 156-162. You'll have to try it to believe
it!
