FMWTR1000

Overview

The FMWTR1000 is a commercial-grade WR-28 waveguide termination manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It operates within a frequency range of 26.5 GHz to 40 GHz and features a power rating of 0.5 Watts. The component utilizes brass construction for its body, ensuring durability in radar applications. This termination serves as an essential RF load for absorbing reflected signals in high-frequency microwave systems.

Feature Summary

• Designed specifically for WR-28 waveguide interfaces
• Operates effectively across the 26.5 GHz to 40 GHz spectrum
• Constructed from brass material for reliable performance

Applications

• Radar system testing and characterization
• Microwave measurement setups requiring matched loads
• Waveguide circuit termination for signal absorption

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version when ordering, as manufacturer specifications may undergo updates. Confirm that the WR-28 interface dimensions align with your existing waveguide hardware. Ensure the 0.5 Watt power handling capacity meets the operational requirements of your specific test environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed, non-adjustable load is required for WR-28 waveguide lines. It is suitable for applications where brass construction provides adequate thermal dissipation for low-power scenarios. Consider alternative materials if higher power handling or different environmental resistance is necessary for your specific deployment.

Part Context

This component belongs to Fairview Microwave's line of passive RF terminations designed for millimeter-wave frequencies. It complements their broader portfolio of waveguide components, providing engineers with standardized loads for calibrating and terminating high-frequency transmission lines without introducing significant reflections.
