Frequency range: DC to 6 GHz Attenuation: fixed options 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 20, 30 dB; adjustable ranges 1-10 dB (±0.5 dB) and 15-30 dB (±1 dB) VSWR (MAX): 1.2:1 Impedance: 50 ohms Benefits and purpose - Enables precise signal level control across a broad frequency range for RF systems - Protects sensitive receiver inputs and improves measurement accuracy by attenuating the signal to required levels - Offers a range of fixed and adjustable attenuation options for flexible test setups - Maintains good impedance matching with a 50 ohm system and low VSWR to minimize reflections Use scenarios - RF test bench and lab calibration: Use the appropriate attenuation to set transmitter output and verify receiver sensitivity up to 6 GHz - Communication system testing: Simulate varying link conditions by selecting fixed or adjustable attenuation to assess performance under reduced signal levels - Device and antenna characterization: Apply controlled attenuation to characterize gain, noise figure, and linearity across different signal strengths without altering other test parameters
