Highlights

Keysight offers a family of higher frequency attenuators for your communications and aerospace applications. Combining low insertion loss with long life and excellent repeatability, these attenuators safeguard your test platform from failures, recalibration, downtime, and lost production.

One of those attenuators — the Keysight 84908M programmable step attenuator provides an attenuation range of 0 to 65 dB in 5 dB steps.

Superior RF Performance

  • Frequency range: DC to 50 GHz
  • Insertion loss at 0 dB: 0.8 dB + 0.04 dB/GHz (dc to 40 GHz), 3.0 (to 50 GHz
  • Maximum SWR: 1.3 to 12.4 GHz, 1.7 to 34 GHz, 1.8 to 40 GHz, 3.0 to 50 GHz

Repeatability and Life Span

  • Repeatability life: 0.03 dB (typical)
  • 5 million cycles per section

Power Handling

  • Maximum RF input power: 1 W (average), 50 W (peak)

Features

  • Connector type: choice of 2.4 mm female, 2.4 mm male/female
  • Programming connector: 10-pin sockets
