50 dB Fixed Attenuator – DC to 6 GHz

Service Description

End Product

This 50 dB fixed coaxial attenuator is designed for high-power RF applications up to 6 GHz, with a continuous power handling capability of 100 Watts. The unit features N-type male to N-type female connectors and a robust directional construction, ideal for signal conditioning, power leveling, and system protection.

Constructed with a black anodized aluminum heatsink body, the attenuator ensures efficient thermal dissipation under continuous high-power operation. It is suitable for applications requiring precise attenuation to prevent signal overload in amplifiers, receivers, and test equipment, or for improving impedance matching by reducing VSWR.
