Microlab FZ series of fixed Coaxial Attenuators is designed for high
power wireless applications where low, guaranteed PIM performance is
critical. Standard models, except 3 dB, are unidirectional with a conven-
tional male input feeding to a female output on the opposite face of the
attenuators with no though DC path.
The 3 dB Attenuator has all female connectors, and also provides
DC continuity by selecting input B, while selecting input A, the path is DC
isolated. The unused port must be terminated with the supplied 2W ter-
mination. Other connector configurations are available to special order.
Units are sealed to meet IP67 for indoor or outdoor applications.
The design is exceptionally rugged, and negligibly affected by changes in
ambient temperature. Low PIM Attenuators with medium power ratings
from 30 to 40W are available as the FY series. (10/12)
Frequency Range: 698 - 2700 MHz
Impedance: 50W nominal
PIM (Intermod): <-150 dBc (+43dBm x2)

DC Path:
For a DC path through the 3 dB At-
tenuator connect signal to Input B,
and apply supplied 2W termination to
Input A. For DC isolation use input A
and terminate Input B.
