The Ferrite Ring Combo Pack is a convenient solution for troubleshooting RFI/EMI from unknown frequencies or multiple frequencies that require multiple suppression mixes. Included in this combo pack are ten 2.4″ OD/1.4″ ID ring toroids as follows:
Mix 75 effective from .15-10 MHz including AM Broadcast band – quantity: 3
Mix 31 effective from 1-300 MHz for general purpose – quantity: 4
Mix 61 effective from 200-2000 MHz for cell phone, WIFI, HDTV, Cable TV interference – quantity: 3
5000 Watt Rated 1:1 CUBE™ BALUN
* Suppress radiation from coax cable
* Provides maximum transfer of RF to the antenna.
* Help keep RF out of the shack.
* Heavy Duty Cycle for Legal Limit FT8/RTTY
* Reduces RFI to appliances and neighbors.
* Side Eye Bolts or Top Studs Output Option
This BALUN utilizes mil-spec coax cable for the windings on multiple ferrite beads with coax silver shield and silver braid for low loss. The dielectric is Teflon® insulation for high voltage ratings of 1,900 volts. (A typical 5KW signal at 50 ohms impedance will have a voltage of 500 volts at 1:1 SWR). Available wired as a BALUN (CB-1-5000) with wire studs output or side eye bolts for dipole antennas. Rated 5KW PEP/1500 Watts AM/RTTY/CW/FT-8 from 1.8-61 MHz. Enclosure is 4" x 4" x 2"
If you run FT8/RTTY contests at 1500 watts output, this is the balun you need – it won’t burn out at heavy 1500 watt duty cycles like other brands rated at 1500 watts (or more). We use these same chokes in our own RTTY station at full 1500 watts output and they have never failed. We use one at the amplifier output and another at each antenna feed point. Works very well on OCF antennas below the 4:1 balun to keep RF current on the antenna and off the feed line. Built like a tank, works like a charm, and priced under the competition – what more can you ask for? THIS IS OUR MOST POPULAR 1:1 BALUN!
The ring toroids are useful for AC/DC common mode choking with multiple turns as shown below
 AC Cable on F-240 Toroid – 7 turns |
 DC Cable on F240 – 4 turns |
The ring toroids can also be used on coax or signal lines as shown below:
 RG58 12 turns on FT240 |
 Ethernet Cable on F-240 Toroid – 7 turns |
For RFI/EMI wrap as many turns as possible for higher choking (under 30 mHz).
