ATT-290M-30-HEX-02

Attenuators

An attenuator is a device used to adjust the power of an incoming signal. The ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 is a precision attenuator used to adjust signal levels to reduce reflection, noise, and harmonic distortion. The level of adjustment can be easily and precisely set using a switch or knob. The ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 is a precision analog attenuator designed for use in broadcast, telecom, studio, and other high-performance applications where signal level is critical.

Applications

The ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 is best suited for applications where maximum signal bandwidth and low distortion levels are required, such as:

• Cellular Radio Networks
• Satellite Ground Stations
• Telecom and CATV Networks
• Military Systems
• Broadcasting and Professional Audio
• Laboratory and Research & Development Environments

Working Principle

The ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 operates on the principle of a resistive voltage divider, where the attenuation is related to the ratio between the two resistances. The device uses a helical screw-adjustment mechanism to set the desired attenuation. The unit\'s selective high-frequency compensation, built-in compensation network, and high-frequency ranges ensure maximum linearity, improved signal-to-noise ratio, and signal fidelity.

The unit\'s output can be matched through its built-in 75-ohm connector. This feature allows the optimal signal propagation to the connected equipment. The unit\'s stepped adjustment ensures repeatable signal levels, while its long life performance ensures it will continue to operate for many years.

Conclusion

The ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 attenuator is a precision instrument designed for use in broadcast, telecom, studio, and other high-performance applications. It provides repeatable signal levels and long life performance, while its built-in 75-ohm connector allows optimal signal propagation. This makes the ATT-290M-30-HEX-02 an ideal choice for cellular radio networks, satellite ground stations, telecom and CATV networks, military systems, broadcasting and professional audio, and laboratory and research & development environments.
