Thanks to a small footprint and increased PIM performance, many cellular radio users are standardizing on coaxial 4.3-10 connectors, especially in compact applications such as small cells. While 4.3-10 connectors help to improve efficiency, boost capacity, and control costs, the equipment still requires surge protection.
PolyPhaser TSX-4310 Series surge protectors fit the application. Spiral filter inductor technology enables nearly instantaneous response to lightning surges, while 4.3-10 connectors maximize space and are lighter in weight, key features in DAS and small cell deployments.
