More Information

Microchip / Microsemi / Symmetricom 58539A GPS L1 Lightning Arrestor for GPS Systems Overview

Features:

  • Flexible Configuration
  • Replaceable Integrated Gas-Filled Surge Arrestor Capsule
  • Durable and Easy to install
The Microchip / Microsemi / Symmetricom 58538A/58539A Lightning Arrestors for GPS Systems are designed to work in conjunction with a low resistance, low-inductance ground to protect your GPS receiver and elements of the antenna system from lightning discharges and field-induced electrical surges.

The 58538A is a small, waterproof unit designed to operate in the communications band up to 2.5 GHz, and to take much of the energy out of a nearby lightning strike. This unit is typically installed in a grounding panel where the antenna cable enters the building. The 58538A will protect receiving equipment only, and must be used in conjunction with the 58539A.

The 58539A is a larger package optimized for use in the GPS L1 frequency range. It will reduce the energy from a nearby lightning strike to a level where it will not harm either antenna system components or receiving equipment. The 58539A may be used alone or with the 58538A.

When placed close to the GPS antenna, the 58539A will protect the antenna from surge voltages and currents that can be induced in the antenna cable by lightning. Antenna system components, such as line amplifiers, will also be protect if located between the antenna and arrestor.

In systems with short in-building cable lengths (<4 m), a single 58539A installed where the antenna cable enters the building is sufficient to protect downstream equipment. Systems with long in-building cables need one 58539A at the entrance to the building and one near the receiver. This diverts to ground any voltages induced in the in-building cable by the electromagnetic fields generated by the lightning strike. The 58538A can replace the 58539A at the building entrance, as long as an 58539A is placed near the equipment.

The GPS system can be configured to protect the antenna and nearby components as well as receiving equipment. Such systems require one 58539A installed properly near the antenna. A second 58539A (or 58538A, as needed) is required at the cable entrance into the building to protect downstream equipment. Finally, a third 58539A should be placed near receiving equipment if the in-building cable run is greater than 4 meters.

The Microchip 58539A GPS L1 Lightning Arrestor for GPS Systems may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
