NEX10® Suppressor Boot

Gamma’s NEX10 Suppressor Boots are a dual-function device that provide two forms of protection to antenna installations. In addition to conventional IP68 weatherproofing, the “Suppressor Boot” suppresses radio frequency electromagnetic signal egress and ingress out of and into the enclosed connector, providing a radio-frequency attenuation of greater than 20 dB. This protects the antennas from stray electromagnetic and PIM interference.

Conventional weatherproofing boots only shield radio-frequency connectors against water and dust ingress. The “Suppressor Boot” improves upon conventional weatherproofing boots because it is constructed of a silicone elastomer composite material that not only shields the connector from ingress of water and dust, but also ingress and egress of radio-frequency electromagnetic signals.
