PE7051-20

Overview

The Pasternack PE7051-20 is a fixed 20 dB attenuator featuring TNC male to TNC female connectors. Constructed from brass with a nickel finish, this inline resistive PI pad design operates at a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. It provides precise signal attenuation for RF applications requiring stable performance within standard coaxial system configurations.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 20 dB attenuation value
• TNC male to TNC female interface
• Brass nickel construction

Applications

• RF signal level reduction
• Test and measurement setups
• Impedance matching in 50 Ohm systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender orientation and physical dimensions against your assembly requirements before purchase. Confirm that the brass nickel material finish meets your environmental corrosion resistance standards. Ensure the 50 Ohm impedance rating aligns with your existing transmission line components to maintain signal integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise, non-adjustable 20 dB loss is required between TNC interfaces. Consider the brass nickel build for durability in general-purpose environments. Verify that the power handling capabilities of the resistive PI pad design are sufficient for your maximum input signal levels to prevent thermal damage.

Part Context

This model belongs to Pasternack's range of fixed coaxial attenuators designed for reliable signal control. The PE7051-20 specifically utilizes a TNC interface, distinguishing it from SMA or N-type variants in their portfolio. It serves as a passive component for managing signal strength in radio frequency circuits without active power sources.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available.
