Coupling(Nominal): 6+/- .5dB, 10+/- .5dB, 20+/- 1.0dB 30+/- 1.0db Power: 50 watts ave: C-218; 20 watts average. 5KW peak: C-218; 3 KW peak, C-0770, 50 watts average, 5KW peak Impedance: 50 Ohms Operation Curves: See page 101 Connector Type: SMA female |
Temperature: -55 C to +85 C Environment: MIL-E-5400, Class 1A note: * Does not include coupling loss **Coupling referenced to output port. Outlines: See page 101 |
To designate the coupler desired use:
1: 0205, 0510, etc for model number 2: Coupling value in dB |
3: “T” for built in 2 watt termination, U for no termination. C-218 and C-0770 are available with terminations only. |
Example: C-2040-6-T a 6 dB coupler, 2 to 4 GHz frequency band, with internal termination
