2. G5RV antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G5RV_antenna

   An earth-grounded 4:1 voltage balun may be used to connect the coax to the ladder line, and 1:1 current balun should be used between the coax and the transmitter. [8] Several sources point out that a current balun not only prevents RF interference, but also reduces receive noise.

   For other uses, see Balun (disambiguation). This article includes a list of general references, but it lacks sufficient corresponding inline citations. Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations.

4. Coaxial cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coaxial_cable

   Likewise with CATV, although many broadcast TV installations and CATV headends use 300 Ω folded dipole antennas to receive off-the-air signals, 75 Ω coax makes a convenient 4:1 balun transformer for these as well as possessing low attenuation. The arithmetic mean between 30 Ω and 77 Ω is 53.5 Ω; the geometric mean is 48 Ω. The selection ...

5. Twin-lead - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin-lead

   For this reason, when attaching a twin-lead line to a coaxial cable connection, such as the 300 Ω twin-lead from a domestic television antenna to the television's 75 ohm coax antenna input, a balun with a 4:1 ratio is commonly used. Its purpose is double: First, it transforms twin-lead's 300 Ω impedance to match the 75 Ω coaxial cable ...

6. Dipole antenna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole_antenna

   A coax balun is a cost-effective method of eliminating feeder radiation but is limited to a narrow set of operating frequencies. One easy way to make a balun is to use a length of coaxial cable equal to half a wavelength. The inner core of the cable is linked at each end to one of the balanced connections for a feeder or dipole.

7. Balanced line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_line

   Interfacing balanced and unbalanced lines requires a balun. For example, baluns can be used to send line level audio or E-carrier level 1 signals over coaxial cable (which is unbalanced) through 300 feet (91 m) of balanced category 5 cable by using a pair of baluns at each end of the CAT5 run. As the signal travels through the balanced line ...
