The Ferrite Snap On, Ring and slip on sampler Pack is a convenient solution for

troubleshooting RFI/EMI with various diameter cables ranging from 1/4″

to 1.4″ for use as either single turn or multiple turn ferrite chokes using ferrite rings, slip on beads and snap on beads.

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 inch ID – 2 pieces

FSB31-1/4 – 1/4 inch ID – 4 pieces

FSB31-3/8 – 3/8 inch ID – 4 pieces

FSB31-1/2 – ½ inch ID – 4 pieces

FSB31-3/4 – 3/4 inch ID – 2 pieces

FB102-31 - 1/2 inch ID slip on bead - 4 pieces

FB56-31 - 1/4" ID slip on bead - 4 pieces inch

Normal Retail price is $127 for these parts

Wall Wart switching DC power supplies that plug into the AC power line plug and provide DC power to laptops, routers, battery chargers, cell phone chargers, etc are a known source of broadband RFI (a.k.a dirty electricity) that effects many electrical devices including computers, radio receivers, HDTV systems, etc.  In many cases this extra RFI noise effects computer I/O speeds since they have to error correct the information packets many more times due to the noise interference causing packet errors.  A ferrite ring can often increase data throughput by reducing the error correction to normal rates.

A simple ferrite ring filter on the DC power line can help suppress the RFI noise affecting the victim device or keep the DC power cord from acting as an antenna and radiating RFI into other victim devices. This kit is also useful on laptop computer supplies, routers, cable modems, wireless phone charges, etc.

RFI WW Installation 300x288 - Wall Wart RFI Noise Filter

Installation is quick and easy: Just wrap the DC power cord through the center of the ring filter as many times as you can and reinstall.  For best results with long DC power lines, use one at the ring filter at the wall wart end (to prevent the wall wart power supply from using the DC line as an antenna) and another at the DC plug end (to prevent the electronics in the powered device from using the DC power cord as an antenna).  Typical installation is shown below:

The filter suppresses RFI in from .1-100 MHz.   Inside diameter is 3/4 inch/19 mm.

Since most households and office environments have multiple wall warts we offer the Wall Wart RFI Filter kit in bulk quantity packages.

Known RFI Generators include Roku/Sling-TV power adapter - Interference heard in the AM broadcast band
 and harmonics.
Also many ethernet Cable/DSL modems, cell phone chargers, computer power adapters have the same issue:
using the AC or DC side of the power supply as a radiating antenna.

RFI solution is to use a linear power supply, change adapters or wall wart ferrite filters
