Aeroflex / InmetIf a full hex attenuator better fits your specifications, look no further

Aeroflex / Inmet is pleased to introduce a more user friendly version of our most popular 2W SMA attenuator; a full hex (FH) body configuration helps minimize the possibility of the attenuator rotating during installation by providing the technician with increased surface by which to secure the device. The same outstanding performance is now available in the Models 6FH (6GHz) and 18FH (18GHz). Standard attenuation values include 0-10, 12, 15, 20, 30 & 40dB. Similarly, our new FHC model is available for production volume 6GHz applications at slightly reduced electrical performance and lower cost.
