Multi-Channel Attenuator
50Ω
1 to 6000 MHz
Product Overview
Mini-Circuits' ZTDAT series multi-channel programmable attenuator systems are ideal for a wide range
of signal level control applications including transmission loss simulation, signal fading and MIMO
measurements.
The 1-6000 MHz operating bandwidth incorporates most of the common
communications bands, supporting applications in LTE, 4G / 5G, IoT, Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiFi and many
more.
Each of the 12 independently controlled attenuator channels within ZTDAT-12-6G30S provides 0 to 30
dB attenuation with more than 100 dB isolation between channels. The system is housed in a compact,
1U height, 19-inch rack chassis, with SMA connectors on the front and rear panels.
The system can be controlled via USB or Ethernet (supporting SSH, HTTP & Telnet protocols). Full
software support is provided, including our user-friendly GUI application for Windows and a full API with
programming instructions for Windows and Linux environments (both 32-bit and 64-bit systems). The full
software and documentation package can be downloaded from our website at:
Mini-Circuits' novel daisy-chaining interface allows multiple ZTDAT attenuator systems to be cascaded
together into a Master / Slave chain.
attenuator channel (from 8 to several hundred) controlled through a single USB or Ethernet connection
and software interface.

The full chain effectively becomes one system with every
Independent control of large numbers of attenuator channels with single power supply and control
interface; ideal for testing receiver sensitivity, device / base-station hand-over, interference effects
and many more.
The compact 1U height chassis minimises rack space requirements.
Remote control from any computer or device with a network connection (SSH, HTTP or Telnet
protocols).
