NOTE:
•••

•

On condition that test data is provided it is collected from a sample lot. Actual data may vary slightly from unit to unit. All
testing is performed under +25 °C room temperature.
On condition that simulated test data is provided, actual measured data may slightly vary.
Other mechanical configurations are available under different model numbers.
Eravant reserves the right to change the information presented without notice.

CAUTION:••••••

Exceeding absolute maximum ratings shown will damage the device.
The device is static sensitive. Always follow ESD rules when working with the device.
The case temperature of the device shall never exceed +50 °C. Use proper heatsink or fan if necessary.
If a waveguide is present, any foreign objects in the waveguide will cause performance degradation and may damage ordestroy the unit.
For 1 mm connectors proper torque should be applied: 4.0 ± 0.15 inch-pounds (0.45 ± 0.02 Nm). Torque wrench model
SCH-06004-S1 is highly recommended.
For 1.35 mm, 1.85 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.92 mm, and SMA connectors proper torque should be applied: 8.0 ± 0.15 inch-pounds(0.90 ± 0.02 Nm). Torque wrench model SCH-08008-S1 is highly recommended.
