PE-W28TR1002

Overview

The PE-W28TR1002 is a 2-watt WR-28 waveguide load designed for the E-band frequency range of 29.4 GHz to 31 GHz. Constructed from aluminum, this component serves as an instrumentation-grade termination with an average maximum VSWR of 1.15:1. It provides reliable signal absorption in high-frequency applications requiring precise impedance matching and thermal stability within the specified operational bandwidth.

Feature Summary

• Engineered for E-band frequencies between 29.4 GHz and 31 GHz
• Features low average maximum VSWR of 1.15:1 for precision
• Utilizes aluminum construction for structural integrity

Applications

• Microwave test and measurement systems
• E-band radar equipment
• High-frequency communication link terminations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific power rating and frequency range against your system requirements before procurement. Confirm that the WR-28 interface dimensions match your existing waveguide infrastructure. Ensure the aluminum material specification meets your environmental conditions. Check for any required calibration certificates if used in precision metrology applications.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 2-watt capacity is sufficient for your E-band application. The WR-28 size dictates compatibility with standard E-band waveguides. Consider the 1.15:1 VSWR performance for sensitive measurement setups. Aluminum construction offers a balance of weight and thermal properties suitable for general instrumentation use.
