PE7371-10

Overview

The PE7371-10 is a fixed attenuator manufactured by Pasternack, designed for RF applications up to 18 GHz. It features N female connectors on both input and output ports. The device provides a nominal attenuation of 10 dB and is rated to handle power levels up to 25 Watts within its specified frequency range.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 10 dB signal attenuation
• Operates effectively up to 18 GHz frequency range
• Supports continuous power handling up to 25 Watts

Applications

• RF signal level reduction in test and measurement setups
• Impedance matching in high-frequency communication systems
• Protecting sensitive receiver components from high power signals

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when sourcing this component, as manufacturing details may vary. Confirm that the N female connector interface matches your system requirements. Ensure the 25 Watt power rating and 18 GHz frequency limit are sufficient for your intended application environment before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 10 dB attenuation is required for N-type connections. It is suitable for systems operating at frequencies up to 18 GHz with power levels not exceeding 25 Watts. Consider connector compatibility and thermal management capabilities during system integration planning.

Part Context

This component belongs to Pasternack's line of fixed attenuators. It serves as a passive RF device used to reduce signal amplitude without distortion. The N female-to-female configuration allows for direct connection to standard coaxial cables and equipment interfaces commonly found in telecommunications and testing environments.

Replacement Considerations

Amphenol XMA part number 3082-6525-18-10 is listed as a parameter-equal substitute. Verify electrical specifications and physical dimensions match before implementation.
