FMWCT1069

RF Directional Couplers Overview

The FMWCT1069 is a WR-90 waveguide crossguide coupler manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It operates within a frequency range of 8.2 GHz to 12.4 GHz and provides a nominal coupling factor of 30 dB. The device features an insertion loss of 0.1 dB and a directivity of 20 dB. It includes a UG-39/U square cover flange for the main waveguide interface and an SMA female coupled port. The unit is packaged in a bag and weighs approximately 70.307 grams.

RF Directional Couplers Feature Summary

• Utilizes WR-90 waveguide geometry for high-frequency signal handling
• Provides precise 30 dB coupling with low 0.1 dB insertion loss
• Integrates an SMA female connector for the coupled output port
• Includes UG-39/U square cover flange for secure waveguide mounting

RF Directional Couplers Applications

• General RF signal monitoring and sampling
• Waveguide test and measurement setups
• Directional power detection in microwave systems

RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific requirement for the SMA female coupled port interface against system design constraints. Confirm that the UG-39/U square cover flange matches existing waveguide infrastructure. Ensure operational frequencies remain strictly within the 8.2 GHz to 12.4 GHz range to maintain specified coupling and directivity performance levels.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 30 dB coupling ratio is required for WR-90 waveguide applications. Consider the physical dimensions and weight of 70.307 grams for mechanical integration. Evaluate the need for an SMA female output versus other connector types available in similar waveguide couplers from the manufacturer.
