Bandpass Filter (02-007206) The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50Ω load at the input and output ports. Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module rather than attempt repair or re-tuning. No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously. 02-007206 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Response type Chebyshev Frequency range 800 - 950MHz * Bandwidth 25MHz * Number of sections 8 Insertion loss 1.2 dB VSWR better than 1.2:1 Connectors SMA female Power handling 100W max operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C Weight 3 kg (typical) *tuned to Customer's specification 9.4.3.4. Wideband Asymmetric Coupler (07-015105) The purpose of Wideband Asymmetric Coupler (07-015105) is to tap off a known portion (in this case 30dB) of RF signal from transmission lines and to combine them, for example through splitter units for different purposes (alarms/monitoring etc.), whilst maintaining an accurate 50Ω load to all ports/interfaces throughout the specified frequency range. They are known formally as directional couplers as they couple power from the RF mainline in one direction only. 07-015105 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Construction Inductive air gap Frequency 800-2500MHz Through loss 0.4dB (typical) Coupling level -30dB ±0.5dB Isolation N/A Weight <1.0kg Connectors SMA, female operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-5.png)

Switched Attenuator 0.25W, 0 - 15dB (10-000901) In many practical applications for Cell Enhancers etc., the gain in each path is found to be excessive. Therefore, provision is made within the unit for the setting of attenuation in each path, to reduce the gain. 10-000901 provides attenuation from 0 - 15dB in 2 dB steps The attenuation is simply set using the four miniature toggle switches on the top of each unit. Each switch is clearly marked with the attenuation it provides, and the total attenuation in line is the sum of the values switched in. They are designed to maintain an accurate 50Ω impedance over their operating frequency at both input and output. 10-000901 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Attenuation Values 0-15dB Attenuation Steps 1, 2, 4 and 8dB Power Handling 0.25 Watt Attenuation Accuracy ± 1.0 dB Frequency Range DC to 1GHz Impedance 50Ω Connectors SMA VSWR 1.3:1 Weight 0.2kg operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C 9.4.3.6. Low Noise Amplifier (11-006702) The Gallium-Arsenide low noise amplifiers used in 800MHz Line Amplifier (55-165703) are double stage, solid-state low noise amplifiers. Class A circuitry is used throughout the units to ensure excellent linearity and extremely low noise over a very wide dynamic range. The active devices are very moderately rated to provide a long trouble-free working life. There are no adjustments on these amplifiers, and in the unlikely event of a failure, then the complete amplifier should be replaced. This amplifier features its own in-built alarm system which gives a volt-free relay contact type alarm that is easily integrated into the main alarm system. 11-006702 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Frequency range 800 – 1000MHz Bandwidth <200MHz Gain 29dB (typical) 1dB Compression point 20dBm OIP3 33dBm Input/Output return loss >18dB Noise figure 1.3dB (typical) Power consumption 180mA @ 24V DC Supply voltage 10-24V DC Connectors SMA female operational -10°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -20°C to +70°C Size 90 x 55 x 30.2mm Weight 290gms (approximately)](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-6.png)

Automatic Gain Control 17-001109 AGC Detector Assembly (Logarithmic) 17-001117 AGC Detector Assembly 17-001201 AGC Attenuator Assembly The sub components 17-001109, 17-001117 & 17-001201 are parts of the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) system used in 800MHz Line Amplifier (Ext. Amp.) (55-165401); 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink 800MHz Line Amplifier (Ext. Amp.) (55-165401) is fitted with two differing types of Automatic Gain Control (AGC) system, one linear, and one logarithmic. The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-9.png)
![STTRS DOCUMENTATION Document Number 80-330501HBKM – Issue A - Draft Page 134 of 500 The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.

It is equipped with a single dual pole change-over relay RL1, with completely isolated wiring, accessed via a 15 way in-line connector. The relay is provided with polarity protection diodes and diodes for suppressing the transients caused by "flywheel effect" which can destroy switching transistors or induce spikes on neighbouring circuits. It’s common use is to amalgamate all the alarm signals into one, volts-free relay contact pair for the main alarm system. 80-008901 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Operating voltage 8 to 30V (floating earth) Alarm threshold Vcc - 1.20 volt +15% Alarm output relay contacts: Max. switch current 1.0Amp Max. switch volts 120Vdc/60VA Max. switch power 24W/60VA Min. switch load 10.0µA/10.0mV Relay isolation 1.5kV Mechanical life >2x107 operations Relay approval BT type 56 Connector details Screw terminals operational -10°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -20°C to +70°C](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-10.png)

Dual Diode Assembly (94-100004) The purpose of these dual diode assemblies is to allow two DC voltage sources to be combined, so that the main DC rail within the equipment can be sourced from either a mains driven PSU, or externally through an XLR connector or from dual mains driven PSUs . They are very heavy-duty diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative supply rail. Combining diodes such as these will also be used if the equipment is to be powered from external back-up batteries. 9.4.3.12. DC/DC Converter 96-200047 96-200047 is an O.E.M. high power device with a wide input range and 12.5 amp @ 12V (150Watts) output capability used to derive a 12V fixed voltage power supply rail from a higher voltage supply, in this case 12V. In the event of failure this unit should not be repaired, only replaced. 96-200047 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION DC Input Voltage range 19 to 36V DC Output voltage 12V ± 1% Max. current load 12.5Amps Operation -10°C to +60°C Temperature range Storage -20°C to +85°C Working Humidity 20 to 90% RHNC 9.4.3.12. 12V Switch-Mode PSU (96-300052) No routine maintenance of the PSU is required. If a fault is suspected, then the output voltage from the power supply may be measured on its output terminals. This is typically set to 12.2V. The adjustment potentiometer will be found close to the DC output terminals. All the PSUs used in AFL Cell Enhancers are capable of operation from either 110 or 220V nominal AC supplies. The line voltage is sensed automatically, so no adjustment or link setting is needed by the operator. 96-300052 Specification AC Input Supply 110 or 220V nominal Voltage 85 - 265V AC (absolute limits) Frequency 47 to 63Hz DC Output Supply 12V DC (nominal) Voltage 10.5-13.8V (absolute limits) Current 12.5A](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-11.png)

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the down link The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur. The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-29.png)

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur. The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-42.png)

Bandpass Filter (02-007206) The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50Ω load at the input and output ports. Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module rather than attempt repair or re-tuning. No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously. 02-007206 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Response type Chebyshev Frequency range 800 - 950MHz * Bandwidth 25MHz * Number of sections 8 Insertion loss 1.2 dB VSWR better than 1.2:1 Connectors SMA female Power handling 100W max operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C Weight 3 kg (typical) *tuned to Customer's specification 11.4.2.4.

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the down link The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur. The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-65.png)

They are very heavy-duty diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative supply rail.

Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module rather than attempt repair or re-tuning. No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously. 02-007206 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Response type Chebyshev Frequency range 800 - 950MHz * Bandwidth 25MHz * Number of sections 8 Insertion loss 1.2 dB VSWR better than 1.2:1 Connectors SMA female Power handling 100W max operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C Weight 3 kg (typical) *tuned to Customer's specification 11.4.3.4.

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur. The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-78.png)

Bandpass Filter (02-007206) The bandpass filters are multi-section designs with a bandwidth dependent upon the passband frequencies, (both tuned to customer requirements). The response shape is basically Chebyshev with a passband design ripple of 0.1dB. The filters are of slot coupled, folded combline design, and are carefully aligned during manufacture in order to optimise the insertion loss, VSWR and intermodulation characteristics of the unit. The tuned elements are silver-plated to reduce surface ohmic losses and maintain a good VSWR figure and 50Ω load at the input and output ports. Being passive devices, the bandpass filters should have an extremely long operational life and require no maintenance. Should a filter be suspect, it is usually most time efficient to replace the module rather than attempt repair or re-tuning. No adjustments should be attempted without full network sweep analysis facilities to monitor both insertion loss and VSWR simultaneously. 02-007206 Specification PARAMETER SPECIFICATION Response type Chebyshev Frequency range 800 - 950MHz * Bandwidth 25MHz * Number of sections 8 Insertion loss 1.2 dB VSWR better than 1.2:1 Connectors SMA female Power handling 100W max operation -20°C to +60°C Temperature range storage -40°C to +70°C Weight 3 kg (typical) *tuned to Customer's specification 12.4.1.4.

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-98.png)
![STTRS DOCUMENTATION Document Number 80-330501HBKM – Issue A - Draft Page 223 of 500 The detector comprises of a 50Ω transmission line with a resistive tap which samples a small portion of the mainline power. The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.

Dual Diode Assembly (94-100004) The purpose of these dual diode assemblies is to allow two DC voltage sources to be combined, so that the main DC rail within the equipment can be sourced from either a mains driven PSU, or externally through an XLR connector or from dual mains driven PSUs . They are very heavy-duty diodes and they prevent any reverse current from flowing back to their source or the alternative supply rail. Combining diodes such as these will also be used if the equipment is to be powered from external back-up batteries.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-100.png)

The AGC with logarithmic detector (17-001117) is fitted in the uplink path and the AGC with linear detector (17-001109) is fitted in the downlink path The AFL Automatic Gain Control system consists of two units, a detector/amplifier and an attenuator. The detector/amplifier unit is inserted in the RF path on the output of the power amplifier, and the attenuator is situated in the RF path between the 1st and 2nd stages of amplification. 17-001117 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the uplink and 17-001109 and 17-001201 are paired for use in the downlink The attenuator comprises a 50Ω P.I.N diode, voltage-variable attenuator with a range of 3 to 30dB. The attenuation is controlled by a DC voltage which is derived from the associated detector controller board. Normally the attenuator is at minimum attenuation. The detector/amplifier unit monitors the RF level being delivered by the power amplifier, and when a certain threshold is reached it begins to increase the value of the attenuator to limit the RF output to the (factory set) threshold. Therefore overloading of the power amplifier is avoided. The factory set threshold is 1dB below the Enhancer 1dB compression point. Some adjustment of this AGC threshold level is possible, a 10dB range is mostly achieved. It is not recommended under any circumstances to adjust the AGC threshold to a level greater than the 1dB compression point as system degradation will occur.](https://usermanual.wiki/PBE-Europe-as-Axell-Wireless/55-165704.manual-2-of-5/User-Guide-966123-Page-109.png)

The sampled signal is amplified and fed to a conventional half wave diode rectifier, the output of which is a DC voltage proportional to the RF input signal. This DC voltage is passed via an inverting DC amplifier with integrating characteristics, to the output, which drives the attenuation control line of the corresponding AGC attenuator. This unit is fitted at some earlier point in the RF circuit. For small signals, below AGC onset, the output control line will be close to 12V and the AGC attenuator will have minimum attenuation. As the signal level increases the control line voltage will fall, increasing the attenuator value and keeping the system output level at a constant value.
