The Anritsu A3N1026 is a wideband bias tee that combines RF and DC signals for injection or extraction in test setups. Operating from 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz, this K-Female to K-Female component maintains signal integrity through low insertion loss and minimum 10 dB return loss across its bandwidth. Rise and fall times of 18 ps support fast transient measurements. The A3N1026 accepts bias voltages to ±30 V DC and bias currents to ±0.2 A, making it suitable for active device characterization in optical communication R&D and high-speed device evaluation. Impedance is 50 Ohms. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 60°C. Manufactured in Japan, the A3N1026 integrates with Anritsu network analyzers and RF/microwave test systems requiring simultaneous bias and signal application.
