Common-mode current choke CMCC for coax and controller cable
Common-mode choke coils work as a simple wire against differential mode current (signal), while they work as an inductor against common-mode current (noise). This box is designed as a common-mode filter for RF cable and also for analog AC/DC controller wires. One of this version is directly designed for K9AY++ antenna system, second one is Universal..
Main functions:
Common-Mode Current insulator High curren insulation Coax impedance 50 or 75 Ohm Controller (analog) wires insulator
Good quality PTFE coax cable Low insert loss - Quality PTFE SO-239 or N connector or F.
Using:
Common-mode filter for coax and controller cable Any devices with RF cable and controller cable (AC/DC) One of this model directly works with K9AY++ antenna system link
Parameters:
- Info:
- Control cable voltage up to 100 V DC / AC
- Maximal current on wire up to 300 mA
- Version K9AY++ 7 wires + GND (schematic)
- Universal version 8 wires + GND only shield (schematic)
Variants:
Version for K9AY++ RX antenna system link Universal version all wires can be use
