PE7392-6

Overview

The PE7392-6 is a fixed attenuator manufactured by Pasternack Enterprises, Inc. It provides an attenuation value of 20 dB across its operational frequency range. The component utilizes Type N connectors, specifically featuring a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other. This configuration facilitates direct connection between coaxial systems requiring impedance matching and signal reduction. The device is rated to handle up to 25 watts of power within its specified bandwidth.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 20 dB signal attenuation for RF applications
• Utilizes Type N male-to-female connector interface
• Rated for continuous power handling up to 25 watts
• Operates effectively within the frequency range extending to 4 GHz

Applications

• RF signal level adjustment in test and measurement setups
• Impedance matching and protection in communication systems
• Signal attenuation in microwave circuit testing environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the PE7392-6 to confirm current manufacturing status and detailed electrical specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing Type N interfaces and that the 25-watt power rating meets system requirements. Check for any recent updates regarding RoHS compliance or material composition changes before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 20 dB attenuation is required at frequencies up to 4 GHz. The Type N male-to-female configuration suits applications needing robust mechanical connections. Consider the 25-watt power rating to ensure safe operation under expected load conditions. Verify physical dimensions and weight constraints if space is limited in the assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the category of fixed attenuators produced by Pasternack. It serves as a passive component designed to reduce signal amplitude without introducing significant distortion. The use of Type N connectors indicates suitability for higher power and frequency applications compared to smaller connector types. It complements other RF components in signal chain management.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. When replacing, ensure the new component matches the 20 dB attenuation value, 4 GHz frequency limit, 25-watt power rating, and Type N male-to-female interface.
