RF Test System with 19 inch Rack Mount Chassis and Ethernet/Serial remote control

0.5dB Step Attenuator @ 0.1-18GHz for Automated RF Testing

/in , /by

Model 50PA-1157 is JFW’s latest addition to our RF test system lineup.  It contains up to 8 individually controlled solid-state step attenuators.  Each attenuator has attenuation range 0 to 63dB by 0.5dB steps and covers 100MHz to 18GHz.  It can handle up to +15dBm RF input power bidirectionally.    Our easy to use firmware will have you running RF script tests in no time.  If you are using Python, contact our engineering team for Python examples.  All RF connectors are located on the rear panel.   The RF connectors for each attenuator are labeled Input and Output.  It is a naming convention only.  The attenuators operate bidirectionally.

The test system has the following features:

  • Operates 100 MHz to 18 GHz
  • 0 to 63 dB by 0.5 dB step attenuators
  • solid-state reliability and repeatability
  • Selectable with 1 to 8 attenuators
  • Ethernet or Serial remote control
  • IP address can be easily set via manual keypad
