M3933/30-29S

Overview

The M3933/30-29S is a screened RF attenuator from Amphenol SV Microwave, part of the 2.92mm series. It features a female-to-male connector configuration and operates within a frequency range of DC to 40 GHz. The component maintains a 50 Ohm impedance and provides a maximum attenuation of 16 dB. It supports a power rating of 2 W and functions reliably between -65°C and +165°C. Packaged in bulk, this unit meets military specifications for high-frequency signal control.

Feature Summary

• Screened construction for enhanced electromagnetic interference protection
• Compatible with 2.92mm connector standards for high-frequency applications
• Designed for stable performance across extreme temperature ranges

Applications

• Military radar systems requiring precise signal attenuation
• High-frequency test and measurement equipment
• Satellite communication ground stations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific attenuation value against the manufacturer datasheet, as variations exist within the M3933/30 series. Confirm that the screened variant matches your environmental shielding requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing 2.92mm infrastructure before procurement. Request updated compliance documentation for defense contracts.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a screened 2.92mm attenuator is required for frequencies up to 40 GHz. Compare against non-screened variants like the M3933/30-29N if shielding is unnecessary. Consider the SMA-based M3933/25 series if lower frequency operation suffices. Verify power handling needs against the 2 W rating.

Part Context

This component belongs to the M3933 family of RF attenuators manufactured by Amphenol SV Microwave. The series includes various connector types and attenuation values. The 2.92mm designation indicates suitability for higher frequency operations compared to standard SMA components. These parts are designed for rugged environments.

Replacement Considerations

M3933/30-29N is a parameter-equivalent non-screened alternative from Amphenol SV Microwave.
