Pasternack has released a new line of attenuators for quick mating and easy installation. Typical applications include DAS systems, remote radio heads (RRH), base stations and antennas.

Pasternack’s 23 new quick connect attenuators are available with QMA, QN or 4.3-10 connectors for easy mating. These attenuators support operating frequency ranges from DC to 6 GHz. They boast attenuation values from 0 to 20 dB and VSWR as low as 1.15:1. The 4.3-10 attenuator models have power handling up to 15 W maximum with low-PIM performance.

These quick connect attenuators eliminate the need for wrench or torque for coupling. They are easy to screw-on and allow for hand-tightening, which improves installation flexibility. These attenuators are ideal for telecommunication, industrial, defense and aerospace industries. The QMA and QN models are constructed of brass tri-metal, 4.3-10 attenuators are made of anodized aluminum. All models meet IP67, ingress protection rating, requirements.

“Our new quick-connect, easy-install line of attenuators further expands our extensive product offerings of RF fixed attenuators. These new attenuators reduce installation time with enhanced electrical performance compared to previous designs. All 23 models are available off-the-shelf with same day shipping,” said Steven Pong, product manager.

Pasternack’s quick connect attenuators are in stock and ready for immediate shipment with no minimum order quantity.
