Rojone Partner Times Microwave Systems has announced two new products within their Times Protect™ line of Lightning & Surge Protectors.

LP-GPX-05-T Series

The LP-GPX-05-T high performance series is an exceptional DC pass design for protection of GPS receivers requiring up to 5Vdc power to be supplied on the center pin. While the RF path is DC blocked, the biased DC voltage protection circuit uses Solid State protection technology to provide unsurpassed surge performance.

The LP-GPX-05-T series offers outstanding Insertion Loss and Return Loss characteristics over the 1000-2000MHz band, making it suitable for protection of commercial and military GPS, as well as other applications in this band.

Unlike competitive protectors, the white bronze plated construction of the LP-GPX-05-T series eliminates potential galvanic corrosion issues and provides long life in hostile environments. The fully weatherised housing is sealed to IP65 allowing for outdoor as well as indoor installation.

LP-GPX-05-T Series:

• LP-GPX-05-TFF – TNC Female connectors on surge and protected sides – bidirectional
• LP-GPX-05-TFM – TNC Male connector on one side & TNC Female connector on the other side – bidirectional

LP-BTRW Series

The Times Protect™ LP-BTRW high performance surge arrestor series addresses applications in the 20MHz-1000MHz spectrum. Unique DC blocking technology employed in this design provides optimum isolation of the antenna port from the protected equipment port for maximum surge protection. LP-BTRW surge protectors have exceptional RF performance and are constructed from the highest quality materials for unsurpassed durability and longevity. These units meet and surpass all applicable industry standards. The LP-BTRW product family is available with N connector configurations and fully weatherised to the IP67 standard for outdoor use.

LP-BTRW Series:

• LP-BTRW-NFF – N Female connectors on surge and protected sides
• LP-BTRW-NMP – N Male connector on protected side with N Female connector on surge side
• LP-BTRW-NMS – N Male connector on surge side with N Female connector on protected side
