Powertec Dummy Load / Terminator, 1W, SMA Male

The Powertec Dummy Load / Terminator is a precision tool designed to handle RF energy with a maximum power rating of 1 watt. Its primary function is to absorb and dissipate RF energy, ensuring that unused ports on your SMA passive components, such as power dividers and couplers, do not emit electromagnetic interference. This helps maintain the impedance and VSWR specifications, ensuring reliable signal integrity in your RF system.

Key Features:

• 1W max. Power Dissipation
• SMA Male connector
• Impedance Matching
• RF Energy Dissipation

SMA Male Connector Compatibility

This terminator features an SMA Male connector, making it ideal for use with SMA Female ports. Its design ensures a secure and stable connection with various RF components and equipment. Whether you’re capping off ports on passive devices or terminating active equipment like modems and repeaters, this terminator provides a reliable interface.

Versatile Application

With its 1-watt power rating, this dummy load is versatile enough for use with both passive and active RF components. It is particularly effective for terminating unused ports on power dividers and couplers, as well as handling the output of modems and repeaters, provided the power does not exceed 1 watt (30 dBm). This flexibility makes it a valuable addition to any RF testing or maintenance setup.

Efficient Heat Dissipation

The Powertec Dummy Load is designed to manage heat effectively by dissipating RF energy through thermal radiation. Its compact design ensures that it operates within safe temperature limits, avoiding overheating and maintaining consistent performance. This feature is essential for reliable operation in both test and field environments.
