PRODYN BALUNS

 

PRODYN baluns are bilateral, high performance, balanced to unbalanced passive converters. All three ports exhibit an excellent TDR (low VSWR) and the two differential ports are well isolated each from the other. These two features are of importance when using the unit with unmatched sources such as D-Dot (open circuit source) or B-Dot (short circuit source) when maximum clear time is desired. Also, the PRODYN baluns can be ordered with optional lead x-ray shielding.
