5 Watt RF Load Up to 18 GHz With N-Type Female Stainless Steel Body

L-com's LCTR1175 is an RF termination (also called RF load or dummy load) that operates from DC to 18 GHz and handles up to 5 Watt (CW). Our N-Type termination/load has a female gender. LCTR1175 N-Type load termination offers 1.2:1 VSWR max. RF load / termination are indispensable components in many RF, microwave and millimeter wave systems where signal reflections from unused ports can potentially damage the device or reduce the signal integrity. By using a terminafrom 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.
