FPH - Fine, Multi-Stage Protection for HEMP and LEMP Surge

The FPH Series provides advanced High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) and Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) protection for mission-critical communication systems. Designed to meet MIL-STD-188-125-1/2, MIL-STD-461, and MIL-STD-464 standards, these arrestors protect sensitive electronics from extremely fast, high-energy transient events. Each unit ensures reliable protection without compromising signal integrity, offering ultra-low let-through energy (<5V) and excellent RF performance up to 18 GHz.
FPH arrestors employ a high-speed suppression design with minimal insertion loss, making them ideal for systems where RF transmission quality and transient protection must coexist. Available in Type N, TNC, and SMA connector types, the series supports a wide range of voltage and polarity options (6V, 12V, 24V DC pass) and delivers broad RF power handling from 20 dBm to 1 kW. Their IP68-rated housings and MIL-STD-202-tested durability provide proven resilience in demanding military, aerospace, and defense applications.
