ValueTronics International, Inc. Fixed Attenuator 11582A

The 11582A is a 18 GHz Fixed Attenuator from Agilent. Attenuators are a type of radio frequency (RF) test equipment that’s useful during RF design. When an engineer needs to reduce (attenuate) the level of an electronic signal, he or she uses an attenuator. Attenuation can protect circuit stages from receiving signal levels that are too high. RF attenuators may be fixed, switched, or variable, depending on their capabilities and applications. Additional Features: Multiple dB attenuators included in one set Type-N connectors The Agilent 8491B are type-N connectors with a maximum frequency of 18 GHz. The Agilent 11582A is ideal for calibration labs or where precise knowledge of attenuation and SWR is desired. Contains a set of four Agilent 8491B attenuators 3, 6, 10, and 20 dB furnished in a handsome walnut accessory case.
