Grounding Accessories

Antenna grounding accessories for coaxial cables

The range includes grounding clamps designated for Aircell 5 and RG-58, Aircell 7, Ecoflex 10 and H-1000, as well as Ecoflex 15 cables. Selecting the version that matches the cable is necessary because each clamp is designed for a specified cable size.

The Triax ERW 7 grounding bracket can be used to connect seven coaxial cables to a common grounding point. F-connectors are located on both sides of the bracket.

Which grounding clamp fits Aircell, RG-58 and Ecoflex cables?

• the version with manufacturer part number 6810 is intended for Aircell 5 and RG-58 cables;
• the version with part number 6811 is intended for Aircell 7 cable;
• the clamp with part number 6812 is intended for Ecoflex 10 and H-1000 cables;
• the category also includes a version with part number 6813 and the Ecoflex 15 product designation.

Always check the exact type of the coaxial cable before selecting a grounding clamp.

Grounding clamp dimensions and connection points

The specified dimensions of the SSB grounding clamps are m(d)=28 mm, w(a)=50 mm and L=400 mm. The locking screw is M6 and the grounding screw is M8. The listed versions include the MIL STD 1757, IEC 60529 (IP67) and IEC 68-2-14 designations.

What is the Triax ERW 7 grounding bracket used for?

The Triax ERW 7 seven-way grounding bracket is intended for grounding coaxial cables and reducing interference. Its frequency range is 0-2400 MHz and its shielding effectiveness is greater than 90 dB. The bracket is made of galvanised steel and is specified for both indoor and outdoor use.

The product can be used in satellite and antenna systems, for the common grounding of multiple cables and in installations where grounding is required by lightning protection regulations.

Grounding and interference reduction for coaxial cables

A grounding clamp is selected for a specified cable size, while the grounding bracket can be used with multiple coaxial cables fitted with F-connectors. The two product types are therefore intended for different system configurations.

The 0-2400 MHz frequency range of the Triax bracket allows it to be used in antenna and satellite systems. Its seven-way design supports the connection of multiple cables at one location.

Which data should you check when selecting a grounding accessory?

• the exact type and size of the coaxial cable;
• the number of cables to be grounded;
• the required connector type;
• the frequency range of the system;
• whether the installation is located indoors or outdoors.

A clamp selected for the relevant cable size can be used for a single cable, while the seven-way grounding bracket can be used for multiple coaxial cables fitted with F-connectors.

Summary of antenna grounding accessories

The category includes SSB grounding clamps and a Triax grounding bracket. The cable type determines the selection of the appropriate clamp, while the Triax ERW 7 allows seven coaxial cables to be connected to a common grounding point and supports interference reduction across a frequency range of 0-2400 MHz.
