PE7050-10

Overview

The PE7050-10 is a fixed attenuator manufactured by Pasternack Enterprises. It provides 10 dB of attenuation with BNC male to BNC female connectors. The device operates from DC to 4 GHz and maintains a 75 Ohm impedance. It features a brass body with nickel plating and is rated for a maximum input power of 2 Watts.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 10 dB signal attenuation
• Designed for 75 Ohm impedance systems
• Utilizes durable brass construction with nickel plating

Applications

• RF signal level reduction in 75 Ohm networks
• Test and measurement equipment calibration
• Video distribution system attenuation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for exact VSWR and attenuation accuracy tolerances. Confirm connector gender and impedance match your system requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if required for your project specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when 75 Ohm impedance is required, unlike standard 50 Ohm attenuators. Ensure the 2 Watt power rating meets your application's peak power demands. Verify frequency coverage up to 4 GHz aligns with your operational bandwidth needs.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pasternack's line of connectorized fixed attenuators. It is designed for reliable performance in RF environments requiring specific impedance matching. The BNC interface allows for easy integration into existing coaxial infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

Check for compatible 75 Ohm BNC fixed attenuators with similar 10 dB attenuation values. Ensure substitute parts support the same 4 GHz frequency range and 2 Watt power handling capacity.
