RF Attenuator 6810.17.B Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Huber+Suhner 6810.17.B is an RF attenuator module designed for broadband applications across the 0 Hz to 18 GHz frequency range. This in-line N-type connector module provides 10 dB attenuation with 1 watt power handling capability at 50 ohm impedance. The component is classified as Active product status with REACH Unaffected compliance. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or specific application compliance needs necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for RF attenuator modules is determined by strict equivalence across five critical parameters: attenuation value, impedance rating, power handling capacity, connector type, and package configuration. The Radiall USA R412710124 shares identical attenuation (10 dB), impedance (50 Ohms), power rating (1 W), and connector interface (N-Type In-Line Module) with the primary part. The frequency range specification for the substitute part (0 Hz ~ 6 GHz) represents a narrower operational bandwidth compared to the main part (0 Hz ~ 18 GHz). Substitution is valid only when the application frequency requirements fall within the 0 Hz to 6 GHz window. Parts are grouped as substitutes based on matching electrical performance parameters and mechanical compatibility, not on frequency range alone.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts maintain Active product status and are suitable for ongoing procurement. The primary distinction between the 6810.17.B and R412710124 lies in frequency range capability and regulatory compliance documentation. The 6810.17.B operates across the full 0 Hz to 18 GHz spectrum and carries REACH Unaffected status. The R412710124 operates within 0 Hz to 6 GHz and is ROHS3 Compliant with REACH Affected designation. Selection between these parts depends on application frequency requirements and regulatory compliance mandates. For applications requiring operation above 6 GHz, the 6810.17.B is the appropriate selection. For applications constrained to 6 GHz and below where ROHS3 compliance is required, the R412710124 is electrically and mechanically compatible. Both parts share identical attenuation, impedance, power handling, and connector specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the R412710124 be used as a direct replacement for the 6810.17.B in all applications?

A: The R412710124 is mechanically and electrically compatible only for applications operating at frequencies of 6 GHz and below. The frequency range specification of the R412710124 (0 Hz ~ 6 GHz) is narrower than the 6810.17.B (0 Hz ~ 18 GHz). Applications requiring operation above 6 GHz must use the 6810.17.B.

Q: What are the matching electrical parameters between these two parts?

A: Both parts provide 10 dB attenuation, 50 ohm impedance, 1 watt power handling, and N-type in-line module packaging. These four parameters are identical across both components.

Q: How do the regulatory compliance statuses differ?

A: The 6810.17.B carries REACH Unaffected status with no RoHS specification provided. The R412710124 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected. Applications subject to ROHS3 requirements may require the R412710124, while applications in REACH Unaffected jurisdictions may use either part based on frequency requirements.

Q: Are there inventory considerations between these parts?

A: The 6810.17.B has 640 pieces in stock, while the R412710124 has 865 pieces available. Both are classified as New Original In Stock in Bulk packaging.

Q: What connector type is used on both parts?

A: Both the 6810.17.B and R412710124 use N-type in-line module connectors, ensuring mechanical compatibility in applications designed for N-type RF interfaces.
