RF Engineers often use this type variable attenuator for waveguide when they are designing a system and are testing their design concepts in the lab. These ultra-high frequency variable waveguide attenuator products allow the designer to see how the system will perform at various signal strengths and can also be used to determine the optimum signal performance of the system.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Continuously variable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pasternack.com\/nsearch.aspx?Category=Waveguide+Terminations%5EWaveguide+To+Coax+Adapters%5EWaveguide+Sections%5EWaveguide+Bends%5EWaveguide+Standard+Gain+Horns%5EWaveguide+Gain+Horns%5EStandard+Gain+Horns%5EGain+Horns%5EWaveguide+BandPass+Filters%5EWaveguide+Couplers%5EWaveguide+Detectors%5EWaveguide+Variable+Attenuators&amp;sort=y\">waveguide<\/a> attenuators can vary the attenuation level from 0 to 30 dB over the specified band allowing the user to dial in the attenuation level needed for the application. Another valuable feature of these waveguide attenuator products is that the attenuation level is adjusted using a micrometer, enabling repeatable and rapid re-setting to different attenuation levels. These Pasternack variable attenuators also boast flat performance across a wide band low insertion loss.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are introducing continuously variable waveguide attenuators for millimeter wave applications with performance up to 110 GHz.
