DC Surge Protection for Remote Radio Heads
CB Product Series
Overvoltage Protection & Fiber Management Junction Box
powered by
The deployment of Remote Radio
Head (RRH) architecture poses
unique challenges to the mobile
industry. Raycap's innovative
RRH protection solutions mitigate
the risk of damage due to
lightning and provide high levels
of availability and reliability to
radio equipment.
Port size and configuration of enclosure
may differ from what is shown.
Features
Ÿ The CB Product Series utilizes the patented Strikesorb® 30-V1-HV Surge Protective
Device (SPD), specifically designed for the Remote Radio Head (RRH) installation
environment and certified for use in low, 48 volt DC operating applications.
Ÿ The Strikesorb 30-V1-HV is a Class I SPD, certified by VDE per the IEC 61643-11
Safety Standard as suitable for installation in areas where direct lightning exposure is
expected. Strikesorb 30-V1-HV is able to withstand direct lightning currents of up to 5
kA (10/350 µs) and induced surge currents of up to 60 kA (8/20 µs).
Ÿ Provides very low clamping/let-through voltage, unique for a Class I product, as it
does not employ spark gaps or other switching elements.
Ÿ Strikesorb offers unique protection levels to the RRH equipment as well as the
baseband units.
Ÿ Fully Recognized to UL 1449 4th Edition Safety Standard
Ÿ Patent pending design
Benefits
 Offers unique maintenance-free protection against direct lightning currents.
 Protects up to four RRHs and provides connection for fiber optic pairs.
 Utilizes an ingress protection rated, IP 67 enclosure, allowing for indoor or outdoor
installation on a roof or tower top.
 Configurable cable ports are designed to accommodate varying diameters of
hybrid (combined power and fiber optic) or standard cables with diameters up to
1.625" [41.27mm] depending upon port configuration.
 Lightweight design allows for easy tower top installation.
