    Low-PIM adapters

    Pasternack Enterprises has expanded its high performance, precision low-PIM adapters. The new low-PIM (passive intermodulation) adapters from Pasternack target applications requiring high performance at ultra-low VSWR. Pasternack's new line is attractive to portable PIM testing and portable sweep testing. Other low-PIM adapter applications include installations in cellular/PCS, RF wireless infrastructure, OEM in-rack RF routing, in-building systems, and land mobile radio. These new precision adapters provide PIM levels that are consistently less than -165 dBc with low VSWR to 8 GHz. The adapters are fabricated with tight machine tolerances providing optimum electrical and mechanical interface. Each low-PIM adapter body is plated with a tri-metal Abaloy coating, that produces a very durable surface with good corrosion protection and abrasion resistance, while providing superior electrical contact properties. Low-PIM adapters from Pasternack are available with between-series 7/16 DIN and Type-N connectors. In-series low-PIM adapters have various combinations of 7/16 DIN, N, and SMA connector types. Pasternack's new lines of precision adapters mate perfectly to their low-PIM coaxial cable jumpers. "Our new line of precision low-PIM adapters are a great compliment to the breadth and depth of our wireless infrastructure product base," says Gerry Camacho, VP of Technical Services at Pasternack Enterprises, Inc. "These new precision adapters provide Pasternack customers more choices of reliable low-PIM products that are available for immediate shipment." Pasternack Enterprises Product deeplink
