GLOMEX RA207 Rectangular Ground Plate for Superior SSB and Lightning ProtectionEnsure the ultimate safety and performance of your vessel's critical communication systems with the GLOMEX RA207 Rectangular Ground Plate. An essential component for any serious mariner, this ground plate is engineered to provide a highly effective and reliable grounding solution for Single Sideband (SSB) radios and lightning protection systems. Designed for installation on fiberglass or wooden hulls, the RA207 creates the extensive ground plane necessary for optimal electronic performance, enhancing both the safety and capability of your boat.The primary benefit of the RA207 lies in its ability to establish a low-resistance, large-surface-area connection to the water. This is crucial for SSB radios, as it significantly improves transmission efficiency, signal clarity, and overall range. By providing a proper RF ground, it minimizes interference and ensures your communications are clear and reliable when you need them most. Furthermore, it serves as a vital safety device, offering a direct and efficient path for lightning strikes to dissipate harmlessly into the sea, protecting your boat's sensitive electronics, mast, and crew from catastrophic damage.Key Benefits:* Unmatched Communication Performance: Creates a vast and effective RF ground plane, dramatically improving the transmission and reception quality of your SSB radio for clearer long-distance communication.* Essential Lightning Protection: Provides a low-impedance path to the sea, safely dissipating the immense energy of a lightning strike and safeguarding your vessel and its electronic equipment.* Highly Efficient Design: Utilizes an advanced sintered metal construction, which creates an extremely porous structure. This innovative design provides a massive functional surface area in a compact, easy-to-install rectangular form factor.* Durable and Reliable: Built to withstand the harsh marine environment, ensuring long-lasting performance and peace of mind below the waterline. Its robust construction guarantees a dependable connection for years of service.Main Features:The GLOMEX RA207 stands apart due to its specialized engineering. The plate's core feature is its highly porous metallic matrix, which is the key to achieving a ground area equivalent far greater than its physical dimensions. This technology ensures maximum conductivity and contact with the water. The convenient rectangular shape and pre-drilled mounting holes simplify installation on the hull, making it a practical choice for both new builds and retrofits. For high-power applications, such as an 800W SSB system, installing a pair of these plates is recommended to achieve the superior grounding required for peak performance and safety. These plates are the professional's choice for creating a dependable grounding system on non-metallic hulls.Technical Specifications:* Attribute: Plates* Dimension: 455x150x13 mm (18x6x1/2´´)* Ground Area...
