ATT-0291-02-HEX-02

Attenuators Overview

The ATT-0291-02-HEX-02 is a fixed RF attenuator manufactured by Cinch Connectivity Solutions under the Midwest Microwave brand. It provides a nominal attenuation of 2 dB with a frequency range extending from DC to 12.4 GHz. The component features SMA male-to-female connectors and supports a maximum power rating of 2 W. It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C and utilizes a hexagonal inline module housing.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise signal reduction in high-frequency circuits
• Features robust SMA interconnects for reliable signal transmission
• Designed for stable performance across extreme temperature environments

Attenuators Applications

• RF test and measurement instrumentation
• Wireless communication systems
• Aerospace and defense electronics

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific SMA connector gender configuration and hex module dimensions against your assembly drawings before ordering. Confirm that the 2W power rating and 12.4 GHz frequency limit align with your system requirements. Check current manufacturing lead times as these components may be produced to order. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards if required by your project specifications.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a 2 dB attenuation value is required up to 12.4 GHz. Compare with the ATT-0291-04-HEX-02 if higher attenuation is needed. Consider the ATT-0290 series for applications requiring operation up to 18 GHz. Ensure the SMA interface matches your existing cable or fixture connections.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the ATT-0291 series of connectorized attenuators from Midwest Microwave. The series offers various attenuation values within the same form factor, allowing for consistent mechanical integration across different circuit designs. It is part of Cinch Connectivity Solutions' portfolio of high-performance RF and microwave components.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other ATT-0291-xx-HEX-02 variants with different attenuation values. Cross-reference with ATT-0290-xx-SMA-02 models for similar electrical performance but different frequency ranges or packaging styles.
