2082-6244-30-CRYO

Overview

The Amphenol XMA 2082-6244-30-CRYO is a connectorized RF attenuator designed for cryogenic environments. It features SMA male-to-female connectors and provides a fixed attenuation of 30dB. The component operates within a frequency range of DC to 18 GHz with a 50 Ohm impedance. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 2W. The unit is constructed as an in-line module with a length of 25.9 mm, ensuring signal integrity in low-temperature applications.

Feature Summary

• Linear passive transmission line design for precise power reduction
• Optimized for operation in cryogenic temperature conditions
• SMA male-to-female interface for direct system integration

Applications

• Cryogenic test and measurement systems
• Low-temperature RF signal conditioning
• Spacecraft and satellite communication subsystems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific cryogenic rating requirements against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the SMA connector polarity matches the system design. Ensure the 2W power limit is sufficient for the intended application. Check for any environmental compliance certifications required by the project specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 30dB attenuation is required at frequencies up to 18 GHz. The SMA interface is suitable for standard coaxial connections. Consider the 2W power handling capability for signal levels. The cryogenic designation indicates suitability for extreme cold environments rather than standard room temperature operations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Amphenol XMA series of connectorized attenuators. It is specifically engineered for interconnect applications requiring stable performance in harsh thermal conditions. The product falls under the broader category of RF and microwave components used in high-reliability electronic systems.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official manufacturer documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume compatibility based on generic specifications alone. Verify connector type, impedance, and frequency range match exactly.
