770-50

Attenuators Overview

The L3 Narda-MITEQ 770-50 is a fixed attenuator assembly designed for high-frequency applications. It operates within a frequency range of 0 MHz to 18,000 MHz (18 GHz). The nominal attenuation value is 50 dB with a tolerance of +3.0 dB. The component supports a maximum power handling capacity of 100 Watts. It features an N-Type connector interface and is constructed as an in-line module. The device is RoHS compliant and lead-free.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise 50 dB signal attenuation across a broad microwave frequency spectrum up to 18 GHz.
• Engineered for high power handling capabilities supporting continuous wave signals up to 100 Watts.
• Utilizes robust N-Type coaxial connectors for reliable in-line integration into RF transmission lines.

Attenuators Applications

• RF test and measurement equipment requiring stable signal reduction
• Microwave communication systems needing precise power level control
• Defense and aerospace radar subsystems

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version from L3 Narda-MITEQ or authorized distributors to confirm current manufacturing status and compliance certifications. Ensure that the N-Type connector gender and mating requirements align with existing system interfaces. Confirm thermal management strategies are adequate for sustained 100W operation in the intended enclosure environment.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 50 dB attenuation is required at frequencies extending to 18 GHz. Consider the 100W power rating against peak and average signal levels in the circuit. Evaluate the physical dimensions and mounting style of the in-line module against available space constraints in the RF chain.

Attenuators Part Context

The 770 series represents a line of fixed attenuators from L3 Narda-MITEQ, offering various attenuation values such as 10 dB, 20 dB, and 60 dB. These components are part of a standardized family designed for consistency in performance and mechanical form factor across different attenuation levels within the same product line.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other models from the L3 Narda-MITEQ 770 series with identical specifications, such as the 770-50 variant if ordering suffixes differ. Cross-brand replacements require matching 50 dB attenuation, 18 GHz frequency range, 100W power rating, and N-Type connectors.
