Fixed RF attenuators – 75 ohms, F connector and DC to 3 GHz: BM10062 series | Bracke Manufacturing
Bracke BM10062 fixed 75-ohm RF attenuators with F connectors, a 2 W power rating, DC to 3 GHz operation and attenuation values from 1 to 30 dB.
The Bracke BM10062 series consists of fixed coaxial RF attenuators for 75-ohm signal paths with an F connector. All models cover a frequency range from DC to 3 GHz and have a specified power rating of 2 W.
The series is available with fixed attenuation values of 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, 20 and 30 dB. Attenuation accuracy ranges from ±0.5 to ±1.0 dB, depending on the selected model. A maximum VSWR of 1.25:1 is specified for every listed reference.
Advantages
- 75-ohm system impedance: For compatible coaxial RF signal paths and measurement chains.
- Frequency range from DC to 3 GHz: Common specified frequency coverage across all versions.
- Seven fixed attenuation values: Choice of 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, 20 or 30 dB.
- 2 W power rating: Common specified RF power across the series.
- Defined attenuation accuracy: Model-specific values from ±0.5 to ±1.0 dB.
- Low maximum VSWR: 1.25:1 for all listed models.
