PRC822S-N/MF Quarter wave coaxial protector type N, 1500W, 800-2200MHz

PRC series (Quarter Wave Protection)

Quarter Wave DC Blocked Protection is an active band pass filter. It has no active components. Rather the body and corresponding stub are tuned to one quarter of the desired wave length. This allows only specific frequency bands to pass through the unit. Since lightning operates only on a very small spectrum, from a few hundred kHz to a few MHz, it and all other frequency’s are short-circuited to ground.

The filter may be selective (narrow band or wide-band), according to the calculation of various mechanical elements.

The PRC technology can be selected with very narrow band or wide band depending on the application. Surge current withstand is the depending on connector type. Typically, a 7/16 Din connector can handle 100kA 8/20μs while an N-type connector can handle up to 50kA 8/20μs.

AC/DC power injection is not possible with this technology typical application is the protection of radio lines that do not have a source voltage
