Agilent/Keysight 11716D

The Keysight 11716D is an attenuator interconnection kit that connects Keysight 84904L and 84906L programmable step attenuators in series to extend attenuation ranges. The kit enables cascade configuration with 1 dB step increments, providing precise signal control across RF and microwave systems up to 50 GHz.

– Technical Specifications

• Connector Type: 2.92 mm
• Return Loss: ≥ 14 dB
• Overall Height (with attenuators): 3.780 inches
• Frequency Range: Dependent on connected attenuators; typical operation to 50 GHz

– Key Features

• Rigid interconnect cable with combining bracket ensures mechanical and electrical integrity
• 2.92 mm connectors provide low-loss RF interface
• Designed for seamless series connection of dual attenuator elements
• Includes combining bracket, interconnect rigid cable, and mounting hardware
• Return loss specification of ≥ 14 dB maintains signal fidelity in cascade configurations

– Typical Applications

• Multi-stage attenuation systems requiring extended dynamic range
• Precision RF signal control in test and measurement setups
• Microwave system integration with cascaded attenuation requirements
• 1 dB step increment applications across broadband frequency coverage

– Compatibility & Integration

The 11716D interconnects specifically with Keysight 84904L and 84906L programmable step attenuators. The kit is part of the 11716 series of interconnection solutions designed to cascade multiple Keysight attenuators while maintaining 1 dB resolution. The 3.780 inch overall height specification applies to the assembly with both attenuators mounted. An operating guide for the 11716A/C/D/E/F series is available detailing proper connector integrity and usage procedures.
