At last a troubleshooter's ferrite kit that works from 150 KHz to 2 H=GHZ. Now you can suppress RFi from unknown frequency ranges with a full spectrum of ferrite cores that have a 1/2" ID large enough for multiple turns of many common data and signal wires. Try 1 mix and see if it has an effect and if not then try another until you suppress the unknown frequencies. Or use them all to provide protection across a broad frequency range. 3 ferrite cores provide at least 500 ohms in the frequency band to give a measurable difference in RFI and noise suppression.

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).
