Procurement Notes

Verify the exact model number against official Pasternack documentation to ensure correct attenuation value and connector type. Confirm frequency range and power rating requirements match application needs before ordering.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 6 dB loss is required at frequencies up to 18 GHz. Ensure system power levels do not exceed the 5 Watt rating. Consider thermal management due to the heatsink design.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pasternack's fixed attenuator series. It serves as a passive component for controlling signal amplitude in RF circuits without introducing significant phase shift or distortion within its specified bandwidth.

Replacement Considerations

Check for compatible N-type fixed attenuators from other manufacturers if lead times are critical. Ensure replacement parts meet the same 6 dB tolerance and 18 GHz frequency specifications.
