Available as a Unun for 50 ohm coax to 75 ohm coax or 75 unbalanced load or as a Balun for 50 ohm coax to balanced load such as a low (less than a wavelength high) dipole with either side eye bolts and halyard hoist or as post mountable top studs output.

This is an impedance transformer for 50 to 75 ohms and may require a additional feed line choke to keep common mode current off the coax braid.

CB-1.5-1500EB is useful for a dipole center feedpoint for low dipoles with 75 ohm antenna impedance.

Top stud version also useful for 75 ohm ladder line to coax interface


Palomar Engineers offers a variety of impedance transformers configured as Baluns (balanced coax to unbalanced load) or Ununs (unbalanced coax to unbalanced load) for  matching typical 50 ohm feed line impedances to antenna or other load impedances.

We specify impedance ratios as an output to input ratio where the output (or load) is given first and the input is given second (e.g. 100:50 (2:1) would mean a 100 ohm output and a 50 ohm input; a 25:50 (1:2) would mean a 25 ohm load and a 50 ohm input).  Most all products use a 50 ohm input unless otherwise specified.

We have products that are available as kits for the do-it-yourself (DIY) person or fully assembled and tested units for the “Plug & Play” crowd.

Our impedance transformers are available using two different topologies: Binocular cores or  toroid cores with multiple turns for increased effectiveness and wide band frequency transformations.  We utilize single and multiple core transformers using high order windings when needed to extend product performance.

We rate the power ratings as watts PEP (Peak Envelop Power) with standard duty cycles for various modes. To determine the PEP rating required for your needs, see: Choke & Transformer Power Ratings
