RSA-3000-C1 datasheet by RF Industries

RSA-3000-C1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended torque specification for the SMA connectors?
  The recommended torque specification for the SMA connectors on the RSA-3000-C1 is 8-10 in-lbs (0.9-1.1 Nm).
• Can I use the RSA-3000-C1 in a high-temperature environment?
  The RSA-3000-C1 is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C. However, it's recommended to derate the power handling by 1 dB for every 10°C above 60°C to ensure reliable operation.
• What is the typical VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) of the RSA-3000-C1?
  The typical VSWR of the RSA-3000-C1 is 1.5:1 or better across the entire frequency range.
• Can I use the RSA-3000-C1 with a non-50 ohm impedance system?
  While the RSA-3000-C1 is designed for 50 ohm systems, it can be used with non-50 ohm systems with some performance degradation. However, it's recommended to consult with RF Industries or a qualified RF engineer to determine the feasibility and potential impact on performance.
• What is the maximum power handling of the RSA-3000-C1?
  The maximum power handling of the RSA-3000-C1 is 20 watts average power and 100 watts peak power.
