RF Attenuators 
SMA Standard Attenuator, Low Powers

Introduction
RF attenuators are used to reduce the power of a signal without causing distortion of its waveform. They are used in many test & measurement and communication applications

•  Power adjuster between different channels or inline subsystems.
•  As a protecion for the input of the test equipment to reduce threatening RF power.
•  To improve the imedance matching between subsystems or to the test instrumentation.
