Extra Performance
Products: XK44/45/46
Combining Hybrid Gas Tube and Semiconductor technologies these
products offer a package that delivers high current handling
capability of the GDT with the speecd of a Silicon device.
Broadband/ADSL: XK43
These devices have ultra low capacitance and present insignificant
signal losses up to 1.5 GHz.
All the below devices utilise a Gas Discharge
tube as the primary form of protection. The Gas Discharge
Tube (G.D.T.) operates as a voltage dependent switch across
the A and B wires on the telephone circuit. When a voltage
appears across the device which is greater than its breakdown
voltage, known as the Sparkover Voltage, an arc discharge
takews place within the tube which creates a low impedance
path by which the surge current is diverted.
