  Cisco Aironet Lightning Arrestor (AIR-ACC245LA-R)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
This lightning arrestor is designed to be installed between the antenna cable that is attached to an outdoor antenna and the Cisco Aironet wireless device.
Ground the lightning arrestor by using a heavy wire (#6 solid copper) and connect the ground wire to a good ground on the structural steel or electrical panel.
The cable should be kept as short as possible because cable length also determines the amount of signal loss (the longer the run, the greater the loss).

  Patent 5936825: Rise pole termination/arrestor combination
Protection of a cable, its termination and other apparatus from lightning strikes on an overhead line is provided by housing a surge arrestor and a cable termination, which are connected in parallel in a common housing, but as separate components not sharing the same axial line.
The cable 32 and the surge arrestor 33 are connected together by a ground connector 34 and an arrestor/cable connector 35.
Between the spring loaded connector 34.sub.1 and the surge arrestor 33 is a conductive material such as a metal rod threadingly engaging the hold plate 33.sub.5 and a lower portion of the housing 31 by means of a connector bolt 34.sub.2.

 Answers to questions about running network cable outsideof a building.
The distances the cable would be run is pretty short, 10-15' probably, if I was forced to run them through the apartment, it would at least quadruple the amount of cable I would need, due to the nature of the apartment layout.
The lightning arrestor on the TV cable going to my house was installed last week and looks somewhat like a bracket.
I just installed a CAT 5E cable running about 130 ft though my house, from a small punch-down block near where the phone lines come into the house to a wall plate with four RJ-11 jacks screwed to the (wooden) wall, in my new office/shop, for the three phone lines we presently have installed.

 Patent 5206780: Cable termination
The invention relates to high voltage surge arrestors which are installed in parallel with an electric apparatus to be protected from excessive high voltages, such as a high voltage power cable or a transformer.
The present invention relates to high voltage surge arrestors which are installed in parallel with an electric apparatus to be protected from excessive high voltages, such as a high voltage power cable or a transformer.
The combined voltage surge arrestor and cable termination can be preassembled and mounted at a desired position, for instance at the top of an overhead line pole or at some other suitable place, before inserting the prepared cable end through its hollow.

If large currents of a fast rising nature are presented to the arrestor in such a way that a back-EMF develops across the inductor then the companion paralleled gas discharge unit ignites, but its only workload is to collapse the magnetic field of the inductor.
The result is an arrestor whose gas unit undertakes such a low workload that is will probably last forever.
The added resistance on the equipment side of the arrestor was inserted to provide a similar drain function on the user side of the arrestor.

Our arrestors can be found in the most stark surroundings, from dense African jungles to the vast wastelands of some of the world's most punishing deserts.
Arrestor units may be placed anywhere in the feedline at ground level without serious change in tuning, but small change may be detectable due "to small" increase in total feedline length caused by size of arrestor case and circuit.
Cable companies offer little, if any, lightning protection and are not responsible for resultant damage when it occurs.

On some of these MiCLiCs, the fuses failed, on others, the arrestor cable snapped, its connection to the tank or AAV was severed and the ability to command detonate was lost.
Seven line charges either landed off line or snapped their arrestor cables and flew into the mine field, where combat engineers could not reach them.
Cables could also be damaged as a tank negotiated rugged terrain.

 Vertical monopole antenna for HF
Although a lightning arrestor can be easily made using a gas discharge tube, I used a Model 300 HF arrestor from Industrial Communication Engineers, Ltd. The metal case is grounded using four lengths of heavy copper antenna wire twisted together to make a heavy cable 7 mm in diameter.
This cable was silver-soldered to a grounding rod, taking care that the total cable length was less than one foot.
For some reason the arrestor is not waterproof; so I sealed the transformer and arrestor in a small watertight aluminum box.

 Blackburn Buccaneer RAF / RN stories from the Air crew Crew Room from Gp Cpt Tom Eeles
When we climbed down we saw that the arrestor cable was wrapped around the nosewheel leg and the whole thing was stretched tight like a giant catapult; it appeared to be about to launch our Buccaneer backwards down the runway towards our Nos 2 and 3.
Lying in the grass beside the runway was found the mangled remains of a metal stand that the crash crews used to hold the arrestor cable about 3 feet above runway to allow them to move the rubber grommets easily when rigging the cable into the up position.
Whilst re-rigging the cable after the arrival of the VlP's Andover the night before, they were hassled by ATC to hurry up and clear off the runway - as our formation was taxiing and in their haste they forgot to remove the stand!

 An Arresting Application Makes Airport Cable-Ready   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
In the event of an aborted take-off, overshoot on landing, or brake failure, a cable stretched across either end of the runway is designed to be snagged by an arrestor hook on the tail end of the aircraft.
When it is not in use, the cable is normally held down in a groove in the runway by a hydraulic mechanism.
It wouldn’t be healthy for a vehicle or other light airplane to hit the cable, so a switch in the control tower allows the cable to be raised or lowered as needed.
