FMWAN062-20

Antennas RF Overview

The FMWAN062-20 is a standard gain horn antenna manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for operation within the WR-62 waveguide frequency range of 12.4 GHz to 18 GHz. This component provides a nominal gain of 20 dBi and utilizes an SMA male connector interface. Constructed as a waveguide horn, it supports applications requiring precise directional signal transmission in high-frequency microwave systems.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Standard gain horn design optimized for consistent radiation patterns
• Operates within the WR-62 waveguide frequency band
• Features a 20 dBi nominal gain specification
• Equipped with an SMA male connector for integration

Antennas RF Applications

• Microwave test and measurement setups
• Wireless communication link testing
• Radar system calibration and evaluation
• Antenna characterization laboratories

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector configuration and flange type required for your application, as variations such as SMA female or different flange styles may exist within the product family. Confirm that the operating frequency aligns with the 12.4 GHz to 18 GHz range. Ensure compatibility with WR-62 waveguide interfaces before procurement to avoid integration issues.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 20 dBi gain is required for the WR-62 band. Consider alternative models if a different connector type, such as end-launch SMA female, is needed. Evaluate environmental factors and mounting requirements to ensure the standard horn form factor fits the system constraints.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to Fairview Microwave's line of standard gain horn antennas. It serves as a reference antenna for calibrating other devices and measuring gain in microwave frequencies. The WR-62 designation indicates its physical dimensions and operational bandwidth relative to standard waveguide sizes.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include models like FMWAN062-20SM for SMA male variants or FMWAN062-20ELSF for end-launch SMA female configurations. Verify that any replacement maintains the 20 dBi gain and WR-62 frequency range specifications.
