For complete part number add attenuation value in place of -XX, e.g. AA12-10 for 10dB

Notes:
(1) Max VSWR is shown at highest operating frequency, VSWR is lower at lower frequencies.
(2) VSWR for AA06-xxH Series is given for 6dB attenuation.


Options:

  • For Hex version use suffix "H" after model no.
  • For single sex versions use suffix "M" (male) or "F" (female) after model no.
  • Higher power units also available.
  • Between connector series attenuators also available.
  • 50 ohm Terminations, DC Blocks and Adapters also available.
