2082-7550-18-20

Overview

The Amphenol XMA 2082-7550-18-20 is a connectorized RF attenuator designed for high-power applications. It provides a fixed attenuation value of 20dB with a frequency range extending from DC to 18 GHz. The component features SMA male-to-female connectors and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance system. It is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 50W, making it suitable for demanding signal control environments.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 20dB attenuation across a wide bandwidth up to 18 GHz
• High power handling capability rated at 50 Watts
• SMA male-to-female interface for direct in-line integration

Applications

• RF signal level reduction in high-power transmission lines
• Test and measurement equipment requiring precise signal attenuation
• Communication systems needing stable signal control up to 18 GHz

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the 50W power rating and SMA connector configuration. Ensure compatibility with existing system impedance and frequency requirements before procurement. Check current availability status as supply conditions may vary.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 20dB attenuation is required within an 18 GHz bandwidth. The 50W power rating distinguishes it from lower-power variants. Confirm that SMA connectors match the system interface needs. Consider physical dimensions if space constraints exist in the assembly.

Part Context

This model belongs to the Amphenol XMA line of connectorized attenuators. These components are engineered for reliable performance in RF and microwave applications. The series offers various attenuation values and power ratings to suit different system requirements.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Amphenol XMA models with identical 20dB attenuation, 50W power rating, and SMA interfaces within the same frequency range. Verify electrical parameters and mechanical fit before substitution.
