5:1 CUBE™ Unun – Model CU-5-1500 (50:250 Ohm, 1.8-61 MHz, 1.5KW PEP)
Application. For traveling wave, end fed or portable 20-31 foot vertical antennas the 5:1 unun makes a good transformer for converting 50 ohm coax to a 250 ohm feed point. If you use the antenna on multiple bands, the feed point impedance may not always be 250 ohms and use of the unun at high (>350 ohms) or low (<100 ohms) will require reduced power input or the unun may have its power ratings exceeded and damage to the unun may occur. The (5:1 conversion ratio will change for loads other than 250 ohms unbalanced.
Typical application:

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
