FMWAN159-10SF

Antennas RF Overview

The FMWAN159-10SF is a general-purpose horn antenna manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It operates within the WR-159 waveguide frequency range of 4.9 GHz to 7.05 GHz. The component features an SMA female coaxial connector for signal interface and utilizes a round cover flange mechanical form factor. Designed for broad applications, it provides a nominal gain of 10 dBi and maintains a typical voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.25 across its operational bandwidth.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Provides 10 dBi nominal gain for effective signal transmission
• Features SMA female connector for standard coaxial integration
• Utilizes WR-159 waveguide design for specified frequency operation

Antennas RF Applications

• General purpose wireless communication systems
• Radio frequency test and measurement setups
• Microwave link infrastructure

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific SMA connector gender and WR-159 flange compatibility with your existing system architecture before procurement. Confirm that the 4.9 GHz to 7.05 GHz frequency range aligns with your operational requirements. Ensure environmental conditions match the antenna's specifications for reliable performance in your intended deployment scenario.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a general-purpose solution is required for the C-band or lower microwave spectrum. The 10 dBi gain offers a balance between directivity and coverage area. Consider the SMA interface if low-frequency simplicity is preferred over higher-performance connectors like N-type or 7/16 DIN.

Antennas RF Part Context

This antenna belongs to Fairview Microwave's RF Antenna category, specifically designed for waveguide-to-coaxial applications. It serves as a bridge between waveguide components and standard coaxial cable systems, facilitating easier integration in laboratory and field environments without requiring complex waveguide transitions.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Evaluate antennas with similar WR-159 dimensions and SMA interfaces for potential functional equivalents.
