PE7094-20

Overview

The PE7094-20 is a fixed coaxial attenuator manufactured by Pasternack, designed for RF signal management. It features N-type male to N-type female connectors and operates from DC to 18 GHz. The unit provides a precise attenuation value of 20 dB with a 50 Ohm impedance. It is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 2 Watts. The device utilizes a passivated stainless steel construction for durability. Key electrical specifications include a typical VSWR of 1.3:1 and an insertion loss tolerance of ±0.5 dB.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 20 dB attenuation value
• N-type male to female interface
• Passivated stainless steel housing

Applications

• RF test and measurement setups
• Signal level reduction in communication systems
• Impedance matching in 50 Ohm networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official Pasternack documentation to confirm technical parameters. Note that availability status may vary as this component has been identified as obsolete or discontinued in certain distribution channels. Ensure compatibility with existing N-type connector interfaces before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 20 dB reduction is required within an 18 GHz bandwidth. Confirm that the 2 Watt power rating meets system requirements. Verify connector gender and type compatibility with adjacent hardware. Consider alternative models if continuous adjustment is needed instead of fixed attenuation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Pasternack attenuator product line, specifically categorized under fixed coaxial attenuators. It is part of a series offering various attenuation values and frequency ranges using standard N-type connectors. The product supports applications requiring stable signal attenuation without variable adjustment capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

NA-PJ-20 by Tycon Systems is listed as a parametric equivalent substitute.
