Built on a 50Ω matched input/output architecture, the LMTDC18G-8W-16 delivers low insertion loss and stable return loss performance across its full ultra-wide operating band, clamping input power to a safe 16dBm limiting threshold while handling up to 8W CW. ESD-protected to Class 0 (150V), the unit is qualified to MIL-STD-810F shock and vibration standards — 25g rms endurance across 1 hour per axis, plus 20G non-operating shock across 3 axes — making it suitable for demanding field and laboratory environments from -45°C to +85°C operating temperature.

Whether protecting a communication receiver front end, characterizing devices on the test bench, or safeguarding sensor radar electronics from unexpected power spikes, the LMTDC18G-8W-16 delivers reliable, repeatable protection across DC to 18GHz in a compact SMA-connectorized package.
