NPJ50AT6G10W-30dB

Overview

The NPJ50AT6G10W-30dB is a fixed coaxial attenuator manufactured by TYCLON, designed for high-frequency RF applications. It features an N-Type connector interface with plug and jack mating configurations. The component operates within a frequency range of DC to 6 GHz and maintains a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms. It provides a nominal attenuation value of 30 dB, with a tolerance of ±1.4 dB up to 6 GHz. The unit supports a maximum power handling capacity of 10 Watts. Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) is specified at 1.2 or less from DC to 3 GHz, and 1.3 or less from 3 GHz to 6 GHz. The operating temperature range extends from -45°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Fixed attenuation design providing stable signal reduction in RF circuits
• N-Type connector interface ensuring compatibility with standard coaxial systems
• Wide frequency operation supporting signals up to 6 GHz
• Robust thermal performance suitable for demanding environmental conditions

Applications

• High-frequency wireless communication systems
• IoT device signal conditioning
• Data infrastructure testing equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration (plug/jack) required for your assembly, as mating types are critical for integration. Confirm that the 10W power rating aligns with your system's peak power levels to prevent damage. Ensure the N-Type interface matches existing cabling standards. Check VSWR requirements against application sensitivity thresholds. Validate temperature ratings against operational environments.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a precise 30 dB attenuation is required within a 50 Ohm system up to 6 GHz. Consider the 10W power limit relative to signal strength. Compare VSWR specifications against other models if strict signal integrity is paramount. Evaluate the N-Type connector size constraints against available space. Assess thermal management needs given the -45°C to +85°C operating range.

Part Context

This component belongs to TYCLON's NPJ series of coaxial attenuators, which are engineered for next-generation wireless communications and data infrastructure. The series offers various attenuation values and power ratings while maintaining consistent 50 Ohm impedance characteristics. These components are part of a broader lineup including connectors and cable assemblies, focusing on high-performance RF solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the NPJ50AT6G10W-20dB for lower attenuation needs and the NPJ50AT6G20W-30dB for higher power handling. Verify connector gender and frequency limits when cross-referencing.
