FMWAN187-20SF

Antennas RF Overview

The FMWAN187-20SF is a WR-187 standard gain horn antenna manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It features an SMA female connector and provides a nominal gain of 20 dBi. The operational frequency range spans from 3.94 GHz to 5.99 GHz, aligning with the WR-187 waveguide band specifications.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Standard gain horn design for consistent radiation patterns
• Integrated SMA female connector for direct interfacing
• Nominal 20 dBi gain performance within designated band

Antennas RF Applications

• RF test and measurement setups requiring standardized gain
• Wireless communication system link budget analysis
• Antenna characterization and calibration environments

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the SMA female interface matches the source equipment port type. Confirm the WR-187 flange compatibility if mounting hardware is required separately. Ensure the 3.94 GHz to 5.99 GHz frequency coverage meets the specific application bandwidth requirements before finalizing the order.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 20 dBi gain is necessary for WR-187 band operations. Consider the SMA connector type for ease of connection in benchtop applications. Evaluate the physical dimensions against available space constraints in the assembly.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the Fairview Microwave RF antenna category, specifically designed for high-frequency waveguide applications. It serves as a passive radiating element within microwave test systems, providing reliable signal transmission characteristics across the specified low millimeter-wave spectrum.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

FMWAN187-20NF offers a SMA female connector variant. FMWAN187-10NF provides lower gain options. Verify flange configuration and connector gender compatibility when substituting.
