100023841

Overview

The Telegartner Inc. model 100023841 is an RF attenuator module designed for high-frequency signal transmission applications. It provides a fixed attenuation value of 3dB within a frequency range extending from 0 Hz to 10 GHz. The component operates with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms and supports a maximum power handling capacity of 2W. It utilizes a TNC in-line connector interface, facilitating direct integration into coaxial cable systems without requiring additional adapters.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 3dB signal attenuation for radio frequency circuits
• Operates effectively across a broad frequency spectrum up to 10 GHz
• Features robust 50 Ohm impedance matching for standard RF systems
• Designed as a compact in-line module with TNC connectors

Applications

• RF signal level adjustment in communication equipment
• Test and measurement setups requiring fixed attenuation
• Integration into microwave transmission line systems
• Protecting sensitive receiver inputs from high power signals

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer datasheet for detailed electrical tolerances and mechanical dimensions before finalizing procurement. Confirm that the TNC connector gender and mating requirements align with existing system infrastructure. Ensure environmental operating conditions meet the specified thermal limits for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 3dB reduction is required at frequencies up to 10 GHz. The 50 Ohm impedance ensures compatibility with standard RF transmission lines. Consider the 2W power rating to ensure the component can handle the expected signal power without damage or performance degradation in the target circuit design.

Part Context

Telegärtner Inc. specializes in manufacturing high-frequency coaxial connectors, adapters, and cable components for telecommunications and data transfer. This attenuator module represents their capability to provide passive RF components that maintain signal integrity and impedance matching in complex network solutions and mobile communication infrastructures.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 3dB attenuation value, 50 Ohm impedance, and 10 GHz frequency range. Compatible alternatives should utilize TNC in-line connectors to ensure physical interchangeability. Verify that any replacement part meets the same 2W power handling specification to maintain system reliability.
