Littelfuse SL1021A250RF

GDT circuit protection devices dissipate electrical surge energy safely within a contained plasma gas. Commonly used to help protect sensitive telecom and networking equipment and lines, GDTs protect from damage that may result from lightning strikes and equipment switching operations. SL1021A/B series GDTs are designed to offer high levels of performance on fast rising transients in the range of 100V/μS to 1KV/μS, which are those most likely created by induced lightning disturbances. These devices feature ultra low capacitance (typically 1.5pF or less) and are extremely robust with SL1021A devices able to divert a 10,000 Amp pulse without destruction, and SL1021B suffx devices able to divert a 20,000 Amp pulse without destruction. These series offer optimized internal geometry which provide low insertion loss at high frequencies, ideal for the protection of broadband and other high speed transmission equipment.
