This ferrrite Multi-Ring/Multi-Snap-On Combo Pack is a convenient solution for troubleshooting RFI/EMI (1-300 MHz) with various diameter cables ranging from 3/8" to 1.4"/35.6mm for use as either single turn or multiple turn RFI filters using ferrite rings and snap ons.

The filters are useful for RF coax, AC/DC power cables, and device interconnection cables.

Always use a snap on or ring with a larger inside diameter than the diameter of the cable and use multiple turns if possible (2 turns through the snap on is the same as 4 snap ons with 1 turn). Included in these combo packs are our most popular snap on sizes as follows:

Combo Pack includes the following:

F240-31 ring – 1.4″/35.6mm ID – 6 pieces

FSB31-3/8 – 3/8″/9.5mm ID – 6 pieces

FSB31-1/2 – 1/2″/12.7mm ID – 5 pieces

Normal Retail price is $112 for these parts

When considering solutions for AM broadcast (550 Khz – 1.8 Mhz) you should consider Mix 77 ferrites available in a variety of shapes and sizes.  Choose a size to give the maximum number of turns of the affected wire or cable.

AM broadcast transmits on a low frequency with large antennas.  Consequently it takes a large antenna to receive the signals.  Typical “antennas” are AC house wiring, phone lines, long satellite or cable TV cables, DSL/CAT5 lines running between rooms, etc.  The device wires that connect to these  “antennas” need to be choked with as many turns through the ferrite as possible.  Some installation examples are shown below on this page.

For AC/ DC power cords and coax cables the F240-77 (2.4″ OD, 1.4″ ID) “Donut” toroid is the most popular.  Also available are smaller toroid donuts and Mix 77 beads. Shown below is a graph with 8, 10, and 12 turns through the toroid – obviously more turns has higher choking impedance.  Mix 77 toroid products are HERE and Mix 77 small beads (for small wires) are HERE

Shown below is a graph of frequency response verses choking magnitude for a F240-77 in the AM Broadcast band for a 12 turn coil around the toroid. (Same info as above but different frequency range).
