Description

Pasternack’s PE6172 is an RF termination (also called RF load or dummy load) that operates from DC to 6 GHz and handles

up to 2 Watt (CW). Our TNC termination / load has a male gender. PE6172 TNC load termination offers 1.2:1 max VSWR.

RF load / terminations are indispensable components in many RF, microwave and millimeter wave systems where signal

reflection from unused ports can potentially damage the device or reduce the signal integrity. By using a terminator on an

unused port with a matched load (dummy load), the incident energy will be absorbed with minimal reflection. These termination

components are commonly used to terminate devices such as couplers, circulators, and switches. They are also widely used

in measurement systems to ensure accurate results. Pasternack offers a huge selection of RF, microwave and millimeter wave

terminations up to 65 GHz with excellent performance over the entire operating range and power handling capabilities up to

800 Watt (CW).
