Attenuator 20 dB 10 GHz 50 Ω SMA (m-f)
TA173
The TA173 is a 20 dB 10 GHz attenuator for use with 50 ohm systems. Fitted as standard to the TDR/TDT drive outputs of the PicoScope 9311, the attenuator is a safety measure to protect against voltage pulses from damaging the sensitive input of the PicoScope 9300 oscilloscope.

14 GHz 25 ps TDR kit
TA237
Used in conjunction with the TA238 14 GHz power divider kit and a TDR/TDT-enabled PicoScope 9311 or 9312 sampling oscilloscope, the TA237 14 GHz 25 ps TDR kit includes all the accessories required for connection and calibration and ensures quoted timebase accuracy and TDR resolution. The TDR accessory kit consists of the following components:
18 GHz, SMA(f) reference short
18 GHz, SMA(f) reference load
14 GHz power divider kit
TA238
The TA238 14 GHz power divider kit is for use with the PicoScope 9300 Series sampling oscilloscopes. The kit comprises:
18 GHz 50 Ω SMA(f-f-f) 3-resistor 6 dB power divider
2x 10 cm precision coaxial SMA(m-m) cable
The power divider kit is required in the following applications:
"Splitting" the data signal into data and clock inputs for use with the clock recovery trigger input on the PicoScope 9302 and 9321. One kit per channel is required.
The power divider kit is also required for use with PicoScope 9300 oscilloscopes for TDR/TDT applications. One kit per channel is required. TDR/TDT applications also require the PicoScope 9300 TDR accessory kit.

18 GHz 50 Ω SMA connector adaptor (m-f)
TA170
The TA170 is an 18 GHz 50 Ω SMA (m-f) connector adaptor often referred to as a "connector saver". This is because this type of adaptor is often fitted to an expensive piece of test equipment such as the PicoScope 9000 Series sampling oscilloscopes or component that requires a lot of connect/disconnect cycles. If one of the connectors becomes damaged, it is far cheaper to throw away and replace the connector saver than to repair the expensive equipment that it is protecting.
