Abstract
Tolerances of spectral attenuation of plug style SC/APC attenuators have been investigated. Results proved need for new attenuation specifications reflecting values expected in real life random mating conditions. Thorough analysis confirmed serious mechanical interface issues of SC/APC plug style attenuators.
