Attenuator Evolution!
Is it an adaptor, attenuator, adap-tenuator, between series attenuator? Whatever you call them, BroadWave’s fixed attenuators have evolved! We have developed fixed attenuators that save money; take up less space and lower insertion loss by eliminating the need for adapters. Now you can order fixed attenuators with your connector configuration. Model 359-284-2R5 is a 50 Ohm, DC-2200 MHz, 2.5 dB, 1 Watt device with BNC male to SMA female connectors.
These revolutionary fixed attenuators are available in any combination of BNC, F, N, SMA or TNC connectors. Standard impedances are 50 and 75 Ohm (custom impedances are available). Other designs feature 2, 30, 50, 100 and 150 Watts average power handling with frequency ranges up to 3 GHz. Check out some of the specifications on available models. Please contact us with your unique requirement for the appropriate model number.
New Low Cost 5 Watt Termination
BroadWave Technologies, Inc. has introduced a new low cost 5 Watt termination. Model 552-306-005 is a 50 Ohm device operating DC-4 GHz. Maximum VSWR is 1.15:1 DC-1 GHz, 1.20:1 1-2 GHz, 1.25:1 2-3 GHz and 1.30:1 3-4 GHz. The unit is 1.53 inches long from the connector, 0.50 inches diameter body with 0.437 inch across flats. Delivery for up to 100 pieces is from stock to 1 week ARO. Please contact us for the complete specifications, outline drawings and prices.

75 Ohm Programmable Attenuator
BroadWave Technologies has developed an electromechanical 75 Ohm Programmable Attenuator with an external TTL control board and BNC female connectors. Model 674-043-063 offers a dynamic range of 63 dB in 1 dB steps over a frequency range of DC-2 GHz. Attenuation accuracy is +/- 0.5 dB or 2% of programmed, 1.50:1 maximum VSWR and 3.0 dB insertion loss. The switching speed is 10 milliseconds and TTL control comes via a 10-pin connector with a latch. Other impedance and connector options are also available. Please contact us with your unique requirement for the appropriate model number.
100 Watt Conduction Cooled Terminations
BroadWave Technologies has developed a small, light weight 100 Watt termination. Model 551-199-100 is a space saving 50 Ohm, DC-3 GHz load with an SMA male connector. Conduction cooled terminations mount to a customer provided heat sink, exhibit 1.25:1 maximum VSWR with an operating temperature range of -40oC to +70oC. These low cost units are appropriate for commercial and military communication systems, power amplifiers and site equipment. Delivery is stock to one week for up to 24 pieces. Other connector types and average power terminations and fixed attenuators are also available. Please contact us with your unique requirement for the appropriate model number.
80 dB Fixed Attenuator
BroadWave Technologies has developed a new line of fixed attenuators. Model 352-276-080 is a 50 Ohm, 80 dB fixed attenuator with N connectors. This 1 Watt average unit operates from DC to 3000 MHz offers nominal attenuation accuracy of 1.75 dB and maximum VSWR is 1.40:1. This series of fixed attenuators is available in 40-80 dB values in 1 dB increments. Other impedances and connector types are also available. Please contact us with your unique requirement for the appropriate model number.
4 GHz Impedance Matching Pads
Eliminate impedance discontinuity (mismatches) without introducing reflection to the circuit. Model 852-879-MF4 is a 50 to 75 Ohm impedance matching pad. This 1 Watt unit offers nominal insertion loss of 5.7 dB and VSWR of 1.40:1 with N male / F female connectors. Custom units are available in a variety of impedance and connector types from DC to 4 GHz. BroadWave Technologies impedance matching pads preserve signal integrity by matching virtually any transmission line. Various other impedance matching pads in different connector combination and impedance are available. Please contact us with your unique requirement for the appropriate model number.
