Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm connector type, tolerance, and environmental rating specifications. Ensure that the required operating temperature range aligns with the -55°C to +85°C specification. Confirm supply voltage stability matches the 15 VDC requirement before integration into the final system design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 30 dB gain is required for frequencies between 4 GHz and 8 GHz. Consider the 12 dB noise figure performance relative to system sensitivity requirements. Evaluate the physical module footprint and SMA interface compatibility with existing PCB layouts or cable assemblies prior to procurement.
