R417210130

Attenuators Overview

The R417210130 is a fixed coaxial RF attenuator manufactured by Radiall USA, Inc. It features TNC connectors and provides a nominal attenuation of 10 dB. The component operates at frequencies up to 3 GHz with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 50 watts and utilizes panel conduction cooling for thermal management.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Fixed 10 dB attenuation value
• TNC connector interface
• Panel conduction cooling design

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal level reduction in test and measurement setups
• Impedance matching in microwave communication systems
• Signal conditioning in radar equipment

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for precise VSWR and frequency response curves. Confirm that the TNC connector gender and mounting hardware requirements align with the system chassis. Ensure the 50W power rating is sufficient for the intended operating conditions to prevent thermal damage.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 10 dB loss is required within a 50-ohm system using TNC interfaces. Consider the 3 GHz upper frequency limit and 50W power handling capability. Panel conduction cooling necessitates direct thermal contact with a heat sink or chassis for optimal performance.

Attenuators Part Context

This part belongs to Radiall's line of connectorized attenuators designed for robust RF applications. It is distinct from variable attenuators and other connector types like SMA or N-type. The R417 series typically focuses on high-power handling and reliable panel mounting solutions.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Radiall models offering identical 10 dB attenuation, TNC connectors, and 50W power ratings. Verify mechanical dimensions and mounting hole patterns to ensure compatibility with existing panel cutouts before substitution.
