PE7064-6

Attenuators Overview

The Pasternack PE7064-6 is a fixed attenuator designed for RF applications. It provides a nominal attenuation of 6 dB with a DC bias capability. The device operates within a frequency range of 500 MHz to 2 GHz. It features a 75 Ohm impedance system, suitable for specific video or broadcast infrastructure requirements. The unit is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 2 Watts. The physical construction utilizes a brass body with a nickel finish to ensure durability and corrosion resistance in various environments.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Incorporates DC bias functionality to allow control or modulation through the attenuator path
• Constructed with a brass body finished in nickel for mechanical robustness
• Designed specifically for 75 Ohm impedance systems

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal conditioning in broadcast transmission chains
• Video distribution network level adjustment
• Test and measurement setups requiring 75 Ohm impedance matching

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify that the required impedance is strictly 75 Ohms, as this component is not compatible with standard 50 Ohm systems. Confirm that the operating frequency range of 500 MHz to 2 GHz aligns with your application spectrum. Ensure the power rating of 2 Watts is sufficient for your signal levels. Check connector gender compatibility (Male to Female) before integration into existing cabling infrastructure.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 6 dB reduction is needed in a 75 Ohm environment. The DC bias feature distinguishes it from standard passive attenuators, allowing for active circuit integration. Consider the 500 MHz lower frequency limit; if operation below this threshold is required, a different model must be chosen. The nickel-plated brass body offers standard environmental protection.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the category of connectorized attenuators manufactured by Pasternack. It serves as a passive RF component used to reduce signal amplitude without introducing significant distortion. Unlike variable gain amplifiers or step attenuators, this part provides a single, fixed attenuation value. It is distinct from cable assemblies, serving as a discrete junction element between two 75 Ohm ports.
