WR19-EFR+

Overview

The Mini-Circuits WR19-EFR+ is a waveguide to coax adapter designed for operation within the 40 to 60 GHz frequency range. It facilitates a transition between a WR19 UG383/U waveguide interface and a 1.85mm female connector. The component features a right-angle orientation, providing a compact solution for interconnecting different transmission line types in high-frequency systems.

Feature Summary

• Provides a direct mechanical and electrical transition between WR19 waveguide and 1.85mm coaxial interfaces
• Features a right-angle design to optimize spatial arrangement in assembly layouts
• Engineered for low-insertion loss and high return loss to maintain signal integrity

Applications

• High-frequency test and measurement instrumentation
• Millimeter-wave communication system integration
• Radar subsystem interfacing

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required operating frequency aligns with the specified 40 to 60 GHz range. Confirm that the system infrastructure supports the WR19 waveguide standard and utilizes 1.85mm female connectors. Ensure mechanical clearance accommodates the right-angle configuration during installation.

Selection Notes

Select this adapter when a rigid transition between WR19 waveguide and 1.85mm coaxial lines is required. Consider the right-angle form factor for space-constrained environments. Evaluate insertion loss specifications against system sensitivity requirements to ensure adequate signal transmission performance.

Part Context

This component belongs to the category of RF adapters and converters manufactured by Mini-Circuits. It serves as a passive interface device, enabling connectivity between distinct transmission media without active signal processing or amplification functions.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official manufacturer documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume interchangeability based on generic specifications alone.
