SurgeShield Connector SSC N230 DC cut-off frequency (3 dB) up to 3 GHz Excellent RF performance 140 W CW power rating Maximum discharge current 20 kA O-ring sealed to pannel Easy to install These SurgeShield Connectors (SSC) are gas discharge tube (GDT) surge protective de- vices designed to protect information and communication systems from surge voltage caused by lightning. The SSC are supplied together with an inserted GDT of 230 V static spark-over voltage. The IP68 rating makes it useable for any outdoor application.

All gas discharge tubes are replaceable. Description Type Item Nr. SurgeShield Connector with replaceable GDT SSC N230/01 84102542 Interface: N type (female / female) SurgeShield Connector with replaceable GDT SSC N230/02 84102597 Interface: N type (male / female) SurgeShield Connector with replaceable SSC N230/01-SEMPER 84102624 SEMPER GDT 1) Interface: N type (female / female) SurgeShield Connector with replaceable SSC N230/02-SEMPER 84102667 SEMPER GDT 1) Interface: N type (male / female) 1) Note : The patented SEMPER concept enhances the safety and reliability of the well known and proven GDT protection principle impressively. It eliminates the risk of gas tube hold on due to DC line powering or high powered RF signals, which will render the system inoperable and can destroy the GDT.
