SF0915-6200-09

Attenuators Overview

The SF0915-6200-09 is a connectorized attenuator from the Amphenol SV Microwave 2.92mm series, designed for high-frequency signal management. It provides a fixed attenuation of 9 dB with a maximum operating frequency of 40 GHz. The component features SMA male to female connectors and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. It supports a power rating of 500 mW and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +165°C.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise 9 dB signal attenuation across a wide bandwidth up to 40 GHz
• Utilizes robust SMA male-to-female interconnects for reliable RF coupling
• Engineered for extreme thermal stability with an operational range extending to +165°C

Attenuators Applications

• High-frequency test and measurement instrumentation
• Wireless communication system signal conditioning
• Microwave circuit board characterization and calibration

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific 9 dB attenuation value against project requirements, as this model differs from other variants in the SF0915 series. Confirm that the SMA interface compatibility matches existing test fixtures. Ensure the 500 mW power handling capacity is sufficient for the intended application environment. Check lead times as these components are often manufactured to order rather than held in standard stock.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 9 dB reduction is required at frequencies approaching 40 GHz. The SMA interface offers broad availability but requires verification against higher-performance 2.92mm connectors if ultimate precision is needed. Consider the 500 mW limit for high-power scenarios. The wide temperature range makes it suitable for demanding industrial or aerospace environments where thermal cycling occurs.
