 August 7,2012 – Irvine, CA - Pasternack Enterprises, Inc., a leading ISO 9001:2008 manufacturer and International supplier of custom and standard RF, microwave and fiber optic products, expands their product line of high performance, precision low PIM adapters.

The new low passive intermodulation (PIM) adapters from Pasternack are perfect for applications requiring high performance at ultra low VSWR. Pasternack's new line of precision low PIM adapters is ideal for portable PIM testing and portable sweep testing. Other low PIM adapter applications include installations in cellular/PCS, RF wireless infrastructure, OEM in-rack RF routing, in-building systems, and land mobile radio.

These new precision adapters provide very low PIM levels that are consistently less than -165 dBc with low VSWR levels up to 8GHz. Pasternack's precision low PIM adapters are fabricated with high machine tolerances providing an optimum electrical and mechanical interface. Each low PIM adapter body is plated with a tri-metal Albaloy coating that produces a very durable surface with good corrosion protection and abrasion resistance, while providing superior electrical contact properties.

Low PIM adapters from Pasternack are available with between-series 7/16 DIN and Type N connectors. In-series low PIM adapters have various combinations of 7/16 DIN, N and SMA connector types. Pasternack's new lines of precision adapters mate perfectly to their low PIM coaxial cable jumpers.
