Fairview Microwave launches new step attenuators

Fairview Microwave has extended its portfolio of step attenuators for instrumentation, precision measurements, prototyping and characterisation production system and other applications requiring precise control of signal levels.

Fairview Microwave’s new step attenuators feature attenuation accuracy of +/- 5 dB, making them suitable for high-reliability applications demanding accurate adjustment of attenuation values. Additional superior performance characteristics for the step attenuators include 1 dB maximum insertion loss and a maximum VSWR of 1.4:1.

These high-reliability step attenuators offer wide coverage and high power with an operating frequency range up to 18 GHz and a 2-watt power rating. They provide SMA and N-type connectorized designs and attenuation step sides ranging from 1 dB to 99 dB depending on the model.
