A surge protector includes a coaxial through-section having a first inner conductor and a first outer conductor and a stub having a second inner conductor and a second outer conductor. The stub has a first end and a second end, the stub being coupled to the coaxial through-section, wherein the second inner conductor is conductively coupled to the first inner conductor at the first end of the stub and the second outer conductor is conductively coupled to the first outer conductor at the first end of the stub. The second inner conductor is substantially hollow and has at least one helical aperture disposed therein. A charge elimination device is conductively coupled between the second inner conductor and a grounding device. A radio frequency short circuit bypass is electrically coupled between the second inner conductor and the second outer conductor.
