ATN-40100-06B - N attenuator, 40 dB, 100 W, DC–6 GHz – High-Performance Power Series

N 40 dB Coaxial RF Power Attenuator, 100 W, DC–6 GHz – High-Performance Power Series

This N-type 40 dB coaxial RF power attenuator is engineered for demanding applications that require stable high-power performance, accurate attenuation and excellent impedance matching. With a continuous power rating of 100 W and an operating range from DC to 6 GHz, it provides reliable RF power handling for laboratory test benches, telecom infrastructure, industrial RF systems and wireless sub-6 GHz applications.

Its low VSWR of ≤ 1.25 minimizes reflections and ensures consistent operation across the full frequency band, making it ideal for transmitter loading, power leveling, signal conditioning and input protection. The rugged finned aluminium heatsink maximizes thermal dissipation, allowing the attenuator to maintain stable performance under continuous high-power RF loads.

Featuring a bidirectional design and robust N-type male–female connectors, this attenuator ensures mechanical reliability and installation flexibility in both field and laboratory environments. Each unit is individually tested across the DC–6 GHz range to guarantee predictable, repeatable results. RoHS and REACH compliance makes it suitable for modern, regulation-compliant RF installations.
