PE7392-3

Overview

The Pasternack PE7392-3 is a fixed attenuator featuring N male to N female connectors. It provides a nominal attenuation of 3 dB across a frequency range up to 4 GHz. The device operates at DC and supports a maximum power handling of 25 watts. Constructed with a black finish, it utilizes a 50 Ohm impedance system suitable for RF applications requiring precise signal reduction within the specified bandwidth.

Feature Summary

• Provides fixed 3 dB attenuation
• Features N male to N female interface
• Operates up to 4 GHz frequency
• Rated for 25 watts power handling

Applications

• RF signal level adjustment
• Test and measurement setups
• Communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix against official datasheets to confirm attenuation value and connector gender. Ensure environmental ratings match operational requirements. Confirm impedance specifications align with system design. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by procurement policy.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 3 dB loss is required in an N-type RF chain. Verify that the 25-watt power rating exceeds peak signal levels. Ensure the 4 GHz upper frequency limit covers the application spectrum. Confirm physical size constraints fit the installation space.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Pasternack PE7392 series of fixed attenuators. The series includes variants with different attenuation values such as 10 dB, 20 dB, and 30 dB. All units share similar N-type connector interfaces and 4 GHz frequency capabilities. The series is designed for general-purpose RF signal control.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other N-type fixed attenuators with 3 dB attenuation and 4 GHz bandwidth. Verify power handling matches or exceeds 25 watts. Ensure impedance remains 50 Ohms. Check physical dimensions for mechanical compatibility.
