Description
Model 50PA-1245-64 contains 64 individually controlled programmable attenuators with attenuation range 0-95dB x 1dB steps covering 200-6000MHz. This model is available with a different number of attenuators:
Available Model Numbers
- 50PA-1245-16 SMA (16 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-32 SMA (32 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-48 SMA (48 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-64 SMA (64 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-80 SMA (80 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-96 SMA (96 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-112 SMA (112 attenuators)
- 50PA-1245-128 SMA (128 attenuators)
Future Expansion
The modular design breaks the test system up into a control module and attenuator modules. If your current need is only for 16 programmable attenuators, then you can purchase the control module and 16 attenuators. This keeps your current testing costs in line with your current testing needs. If future testing requires additional attenuators, you can expand this test system to have up to 128 attenuators.
Remote Attenuator Control
This attenuator assembly can be remotely controlled via an Ethernet connection or a serial connection (i.e. RS-232). The network settings can be changed manually with the keypad or remotely using the NET remote command. The network interface can be set to either DHCP mode or Fixed Address mode. All new test systems are shipped from the factory in DHCP mode. A RS-232 connection to the test system is made using a null modem type serial cable. Baud rates up to 155200 baud are available. The baud rate can be changed manually with the keypad or remotely with the SERIAL remote command.
