Space Attenuators

Picture for category Space Attenuators

SV Microwave has developed a line of Select on Test Space Attenuators that are designed to fine tune the RF power levels of microwave circuits in satellites. This product line features SMP Male-to-Male and Male-to-Female configurations that are rated to work through 40 GHz at a variety of attenuation values.

Features / Benefits: 

  • 1, 3, 6, and 10 dB attenuator values are available off the shelf
  • ½ dB increments from 0- 10 dB can be made to order
  • Higher vibration and shock level tolerances
  • SMP interface offers smaller diameter and lightweight  option to threaded connectorized attenuators
  • DC - 40GHz

Applications:

  • Space payload
  • LEO, MEO and GEO Satellites
