4882-6040-10-CRYO

Attenuators Overview

The Amphenol XMA 4882-6040-10-CRYO is a connectorized attenuator designed for high-frequency applications. It features a 2.92mm male-to-female interface and provides an attenuation value of 10dB. The device operates within a frequency range of DC to 40 GHz with a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 500mW (0.5W). The component is packaged as a single unit in its factory configuration.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Precision RF attenuation performance across ultra-wide bandwidth
• Robust mechanical design for cryogenic operational environments
• Direct male-to-female interconnect capability

Attenuators Applications

• Dilution refrigerator signal path calibration
• Cryostat test equipment integration
• Ultra-high frequency measurement system verification

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify specific regional distribution availability through authorized channels, as supply status may vary by location. Confirm that the procurement source provides official manufacturer documentation to ensure authenticity. Check for any specific handling requirements related to cryogenic-rated components prior to installation. Ensure compatibility with existing 2.92mm fixture infrastructure.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when precise 10dB attenuation is required at frequencies up to 40 GHz. The 500mW power rating suits low-power signal conditioning tasks. The 2.92mm interface ensures compatibility with standard high-frequency test setups. Consider the cryogenic designation if operation below room temperature is necessary.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the Amphenol XMA series of connectorized attenuators. It is specifically engineered for extreme environmental conditions, including use in dilution refrigerators and cryostats. The product line focuses on maintaining signal integrity in high-frequency, low-temperature applications common in quantum research and advanced testing.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 2.92mm attenuators offering 10dB attenuation and 40 GHz bandwidth. Verify that substitute parts support the same 500mW power rating and cryogenic operating specifications. Ensure mechanical interface compatibility with existing male-to-female connections.
