DC systems

Modern mobile radio sites today rely on remote radio units and active antenna arrays. Active RF technology is installed directly onto the mast. However, being directly on the mast has a high risk of being struck by lightning. This means that protection measures against lightning and surges are of great importance here.

Reduce the risk of coupling

The laying of supply lines in parallel with the mast poses a risk of surges being coupled. In order to limit this coupling to a harmless degree, the supply line at the output of the base station and at the amplifier near the antenna is equipped with suitable lightning and surge protection.

DEHNsecure modular specially for 48 V DC

This modularly structured arrester is specially designed and tested for the high operating currents of the 48‑V DC supply.

The vibration-resistant module-locking system ensures a reliable hold between the base part and the protection module. It withstands shocks and vibrations as well as the enormous mechanical stresses during discharge.

Quick and easy installation

The replacement of protection modules is performed easily, without tools using the module release button. This means the module is replaced without interrupting the power supply unit during ongoing operations.
