PE7392-1

Overview

The Pasternack PE7392-1 is a fixed RF attenuator module providing 1 dB attenuation. It operates from DC to 4 GHz with a 50 Ohm impedance. The unit features N-Type connectors and supports up to 25 Watts of power. Constructed with black anodized aluminum, it ensures durability in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 1 dB attenuation value for precise signal reduction
• N-Type male to female connector interface
• Black anodized aluminum housing for corrosion resistance

Applications

• RF signal level adjustment in test and measurement setups
• Microwave circuit protection and power management
• Communication system signal conditioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific attenuation value matches the application requirement. Confirm connector gender and cable compatibility. Check datasheet for thermal derating curves at elevated temperatures. Ensure environmental ratings align with operational conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring low attenuation values near DC. Consider higher attenuation variants if greater signal reduction is needed. Verify power handling capabilities against peak signal levels. Ensure frequency range covers the entire operational bandwidth.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Pasternack PE7392 series of fixed attenuators. The series offers various attenuation values from 1 dB to 30 dB. All units share similar N-Type connector interfaces and 25 Watt power ratings. The series provides consistent performance across different attenuation steps.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other PE7392 series models with identical connector types. Cross-reference attenuation values when selecting alternatives. Verify that replacement units maintain the same 4 GHz frequency limit and 25 Watt power rating.
