  • Page 12: Introduction

    Introduction Product Overview The Keysight 8495D and 8495K are 50- ohm, dc to 26.5 GHz, 0 dB to 70 dB (in 10 dB steps), coaxial attenuators with APC 3.5 connectors. Each attenuator is made up of four attenuation sections connected in cascade. Each section consists of a precision thin- film attenuator card, a lossless thru- line, and a ganged pair of edge line transmission lines.
