SPECIAL ORDER SABRE 2:1 CUBE Balun™ – (1.8-30 MHz)

(Original product part # was 770013S - circa 1999)


Model SABRE-2-2000 is a 2:1 (100:50) quad core balun used to translate a 50 ohm input to 100 ohms at RF power levels up to 2000 watts PEP when used with a matched load. This assembled balun features a quad core configuration for increased power handling and flatter frequency response to 31 MHz. With a matched 100 ohm load the SWR over the frequency range 1.8 to 30 MHz is shown in the following table measured with an AIM 4170 network analyzer. Notice that the conversion from 100 to 50 ohms is very consistent from 1.8-31 Mhz and SWR is less than 1.5:1 over the range allowing easy tuning by most radio internal antenna tuners or an external tuner. Graph is for a 2:1 balun often used with delta loop, log periodic, horizontal loop antennas and HF Radar.

Input connector is 50 ohm type N (SO-239 also available - inquire).SABRE-2-2000 is in a NEMA 4x4x2 weatherproof box with mounting flanges at bottom to attach to fixed location (mast, wall, beam antenna, etc.).

Eye bolts and studs are all stainless steel for long life.

Christmas lights or yard lights with switching DC power supplies are often the RFI source and a clamp on ferrite bead on the AC AND the DC side feeding the lights is needed to help suppress the switching power supply RFI noise.  Suitable snap on beads are FSB31-1/2 for the 1-250 MHz range.

We have also had reported wireless HDTV boxes, and FOSCAM and AMCREST security camera systems causing RFI to garage door remote openers. Use our Garage Door Opener RFI kit to suppress the interference to the opener (VICTIM) – you need one kit for each opener.  Maximize the distance from the camera to the openers may also help.  Additionally shield cable to the garage door sensors may be needed depending on severity of the camera RFI.

Obvious Tech Note: make sure your remote batteries have enough energy to activate the GDO or the signal they transmit may not be large enough to over ride the RFI signal, but a fresh battery may be able to overcome the weak RFI source and allow the GDO to operate correctly.
