The ALR06 is a professional RF coaxial lightning and surge protector designed for operation across the 0-6 GHz frequency range. It uses a nickel-plated brass body and is configured with an N Male connector on one side and an N Female connector on the other, allowing it to be installed inline between an antenna connection and coaxial cable. The protector has a 50 Ω impedance, a VSWR below 1.5, and an insertion loss of 0.2 dB. These documented RF characteristics define its suitability for signal paths operating within the specified frequency range while keeping the protector directly in the coaxial connection.
For surge protection, the ALR06 has a 90 V DC breakdown voltage and a maximum withstand current of 10 kA at an 8/20 µs waveform. The unit provides equal protection to both connectors and includes a grounding point as part of the installation arrangement. Its insulation value is 10,000 MΩ, while electrode capacitance is specified at no more than 1.5 pF. The protector is rated for 50 W, combining its RF connection role with documented lightning and surge protection for the coaxial line.
