Description

Here’s a detailed description of a 10 dB, 50 Watt, 3 GHz N-type attenuator, Sunny: 🔧 Overview This RF attenuator is designed to reduce signal strength by 10 decibels (dB)—cutting the power to 1/10th of its original level—across a frequency range of DC to 3 GHz. With a 50 Watt power rating, it’s ideal for moderate-to-high power RF systems where precise signal control is essential. 📐 Key Specifications - Attenuation: 10 dB (90% power reduction) - Power Handling: 50 Watts continuous wave (CW) - Frequency Range: DC to 3 GHz - Connector Type: N-type, male-to-female - Impedance: 50 ohms - VSWR: Typically ≤ 1.15:1 - Return Loss: Better than 20 dB - Construction: - Body: Black anodized aluminum or stainless steel - Contacts: Gold-plated beryllium copper - Cooling: Integrated heatsink for passive thermal dissipation - Operating Temp: -55°C to +125°C - Configuration: Bidirectional (unless otherwise specified) 🧰 Applications - RF Testing: Prevents overload of analyzers and receivers - Signal Conditioning: Reduces signal levels to meet system specs - Impedance Matching: Maintains system balance in complex RF chains - Radar, Defense & Broadcast: Ideal for high-power, precision RF environments
