Description

Pasternack’s PE6103 is an RF termination (also called RF load or dummy load) that operates from DC to 18 GHz and handles

up to 10 Watt (CW). Our SMA termination / load has a female gender. PE6103 SMA load termination offers 1.4:1 max VSWR.

This Pasternack 10W SMA terminator has a heatsink body which is designed to provide adequate heat dissipation within its

full frequency of operation.

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).
