Agilent / HP 8496H
Step Attenuator 0-110dB
Description
This Programmable Step Attenuator offers exceptional repeatability and reliability.
Precision gold plated leaf springs ensure long life (over 5 million cycles) and very high attenuator repeatability (typically 0.01dB).
To improve measurement accuracy, NIST traceable data (SWR and attenuation) is available as Option UK6.
A maximum switching time of 20ms (including contact settling) speeds automatic testing. Custom step attenuator/switch combinations are possible.
