MFJ Lightning Static / Surge Protector - MFJ-270

The MFJ-270 lightning surge protector is an essential tool for ham radio operators, offering robust protection against damaging static electricity and lightning-induced surges along coaxial feedlines. With an ultra-fast gas discharge tube, it can safely divert up to 5000 amps of peak impulse current to an independent ground, preventing harm to connected radio equipment.

Maintaining a constant 50 Ohm impedance and boasting a low SWR of less than 1.1:1, as well as an insertion loss of less than 0.1dB, the MFJ-270 ensures efficient power transfer up to 1000MHz. With a power handling capacity of 400 Watts PEP, SO-239 connectors for compatibility with various coax-fed antennas, and a durable construction featuring heavy-duty steel and quality components, this surge protector is a reliable choice for safeguarding valuable radio gear.

Users are advised to acquire replaceable gas discharge tubes (MFJ-97) for continued protection. It's important to note that while the MFJ-270 is effective against induced surges, it does not protect against a direct lightning hit, emphasizing the need for additional precautions during severe weather.
