Description
The Broadband Optimized™ SL1002A series has
been especially developed for use in broadband
equipment. Special design features provide high
levels of protection against fast rising transients
in the 100V/s to 1kV/s range usually caused by
lightning disturbances. These devices have ultra low
capacitance (typically 1.2pF or less) and present
insignificant signal losses up to 1.5GHz. These
devices are extremely robust and are able to divert
a 5000A pulse without destruction. For AC Power
Cross of long duration, overcurrent protection is
recommended.
Features
• RoHS compliant/Leadfree
• Ultra low insertion loss
• Surface mountable
• 5kA surge capability
tested with 8/20S–
Pulse as defined by IEC
61000-4-5
• Excellent response to
fast rising transients
• 10/700 6kV capability,
as per ITU-T Rec. K.21,
enhanced test level
• 2000 A 2/10s surge
rating
• Meet FCC part 68
10/160s waveform,
200A test and 10/560s
waveform 100A test
• Halogen-free
• Can be used to meet
Telcordia GR1089
without series
