Cross Guide

Cross Guide Directional Waveguide Couplers

Frontgrade Crossguide Directional Couplers utilize an ultra-flat coupling technique that exhibits high power handling characteristics, while maintaining optimum electrical performance parameters over the full waveguide bandwidth. Included in the design characteristics are rugged brazed construction, minimum directivity of 20 dB, maximum VSWR of 1.10, and coupling levels available ranging from 20 to 60 dB with a mean variation less than 1.0 dB. Additional sizes and configurations are available on request.

Broadwall

Broadwall Directional Couplers

Frontgrade Broadwall Directional Couplers are multi-hole and cover waveguide sizes WR-22 through WR-430. The optimum electrical characteristics of high directivity and coupling flatness are achieved utilizing a precision machined Tchebyscheff coupling hole distribution and a precision ground tapered load element in the secondary arm. Additional sizes, special configurations, and alternate finishes are available on request.
