PE7202-20

Overview

The PE7202-20 is a fixed 20 dB attenuator manufactured by Pasternack. It features an N-type female connector on one end and a 7/16 DIN male connector on the other, designed for directional applications. The component operates within a frequency range of 0 Hz to 6 GHz and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. It utilizes a resistive PI attenuator pad design housed in black anodized aluminum. The device is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 100 Watts at the stated attenuation value.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 20 dB attenuation using a resistive PI attenuator pad design
• Directional configuration with N-type female and 7/16 DIN male connectors
• Black anodized aluminum housing for durability

Applications

• RF signal level reduction in microwave systems
• Test and measurement equipment calibration
• Signal conditioning in wireless communication infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required connector interface matches the N-type female to 7/16 DIN male specification. Confirm the application environment supports the 100 Watt power rating and 6 GHz frequency limit. Ensure the directional orientation aligns with system signal flow requirements before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a precise 20 dB reduction is needed between N-type and 7/16 DIN interfaces. Consider the 100 Watt power handling capability for high-power RF paths. The directional design is suitable for applications requiring specific signal directionality within the 0 Hz to 6 GHz band.

Part Context

This component belongs to Pasternack's line of fixed coaxial attenuators. It provides stable attenuation characteristics across its specified frequency range.
