PE7049-10

Overview

The PE7049-10 is a fixed attenuator from Pasternack with a nominal attenuation of 10 dB. It operates over a frequency range of DC to 4 GHz and features BNC male to BNC female connectors. The unit has a brass nickel body and is rated for 2 Watts power handling up to 4 GHz.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 10 dB attenuation value
• DC to 4 GHz operational bandwidth
• BNC male to BNC female interface
• Brass nickel construction

Applications

• RF signal level reduction
• Impedance matching in test setups
• Signal conditioning for measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the PE7049-10 to confirm connector gender, material specifications, and power ratings. Ensure the operating environment does not exceed the 2 Watt limit within the 4 GHz range. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for any updated compliance or environmental data prior to integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 10 dB loss is required between DC and 4 GHz using BNC interfaces. Consider the 2 Watt power rating for system design. Verify that the brass nickel body meets environmental requirements. Compare against other fixed attenuators if different connector types or attenuation values are needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Pasternack fixed attenuator series designed for general RF applications. It provides stable attenuation characteristics across its specified frequency band. The BNC connector type allows for easy integration into standard test and measurement infrastructure without requiring adapters.

Replacement Considerations

Check for exact matches in attenuation (10 dB), frequency range (DC-4 GHz), and connector type (BNC Male/Female). Verify power handling capabilities match the 2 Watt specification. Confirm physical dimensions and mounting requirements align with existing designs.
