PE7207-6

Overview

The Pasternack PE7207-6 is a fixed RF attenuator module providing 6 dB attenuation. It operates from DC to 6 GHz with a 50 Ohm impedance. The device features a 7/16 DIN female connector on one side and an N male connector on the other. It is rated for up to 100 Watts of power handling capacity.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 6 dB signal attenuation
• Supports high power handling up to 100 Watts
• Operates across a wide frequency range from DC to 6 GHz

Applications

• RF signal level reduction in test and measurement setups
• Impedance matching between different connector standards
• Signal conditioning in wireless communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix matches the required attenuation value and power rating. Confirm connector genders and types align with system interface requirements. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply. Ensure operating frequency and power limits are within safe boundaries for the intended application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 6 dB loss is required at frequencies up to 6 GHz. Consider the 100 Watt power rating for high-power applications. Use when interfacing 7/16 DIN female ports with N male ports is necessary. Evaluate VSWR specifications if signal integrity is critical.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pasternack's line of fixed RF attenuators designed for reliable signal management. It serves as a passive component to reduce signal amplitude without introducing significant distortion. The module format allows for easy integration into various RF assemblies and test fixtures.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 6 dB attenuation, 50 Ohm impedance, and 6 GHz frequency range. Connector compatibility requires a 7/16 DIN female to N male configuration. Power handling should be equal to or greater than 100 Watts.
