Description

CMC-154S-3K Common Mode Choke / Noise Suppressor / RF Isolator

This is a smaller (economy version) of the popular CMC-154-3K. This product has 3300-8,200 Ohms of CMI (Common Mode Impedance). Compared to a similar size to the old MFJ-915 beaded choke, but with more than ten times higher CMI values, the MFJ-915 has ~500-1000 Ohms of CMI 1-30MHz and much less at 54MHz.

  • Multi-Zs™ Technology
  • Perfect to cure RFI/EMI problems.
  • Great noise suppressor!
  • Common-mode attenuation is up to ~38dB max. (measured in 50 Ohms systems)
  • Zmag-Impedance Magnitude     
  • Rs-Series Choking Resistance      
  • Xs-Series Choking Reactance

It is a cure for noisy locations, instantly reducing the noise floor of your receiver by several S-units.  If you have unbalanced antennas, such as an OCF dipole or your antennas close to your home, adding one CMC154S-3K will greatly reduce RF Interference problems on your equipment and 120/220V wiring inside your home. We do not claim “one size fits all,” but actually, we design, measure, and make such products. Our CMC-154S-3K has huge Resistive values of common-mode choking Impedance from 1.8-54MHz. Click the chart on the side for actual measurement data.

Unlike other companies, we do not claim unrealistic impedance values or frequency coverage. Most importantly, the value of CMC-130S-3K Common Mode Choking Impedance and its Resistive (Rs) part is always higher than the Reactive part (Xs) over the working bandwidth. This parameter, Rs>Xs, ensures that our CMC will NOT increase common-mode currents as could occur with inferior coaxial cable chokes.

Only chokes with Resistive (Rs>Xs) CMI- Common Mode Impedance stops and dissipate unwanted RF or noise coming to your equipment for sure.

CMC-130S-3K Features:

  • SO-239 Connectors, which produce no impedance bump but maintain the continuity of the coaxial cable where the choke is inserted, help minimize RF leakage in multi/contest station setups.
  • Capable of more than the legal power (1500W) in the USA.  It is rated up to 3kW in the HF band.
  • The Enclosure is UV-stable and could be used outside.

*ICAS = Intermittent Commercial and Amateur Service

  2. Herb Horn

    Great product easy to use

  3. Donald

    Provides the necessary Isolation For My EFHW40 on the MEF330 2K antenna

  4. Gavin

    Works extremely well and super easy to install! Can be attached to anything using 1 1/4″ conduit straps. Dropped my average noise floor 2-3 S units!
