With the 8495D manual step attenuator, a signal attenuation of 0 to 70 dB can be set manually in 10 dB steps with a bandwidth of 0 Hz to 26.5 GHz.
Within the frequency range up to 26.5 GHz, it offers very good stability and repeatability of the attenuation. This is achieved through gold-plated spring contacts, which also guarantee a long service life - over 5 million switching cycles - with a repeat accuracy of typically 0.01 dB.
The UK6 option offers greater accuracy and traceability to the NIST standard (SWR (standing wave ratio) and attenuation).
Higher attenuations can be achieved by connecting several attenuators in series. The connection set 11716E offers a quick connection to other attenuators to achieve further attenuation values.
