Smiths Interconnect|TRAK has invested great efforts to innovate new families of high & low power isolator and circulator coaxial devices. Externally it is easy to see why Smiths Interconnect|TRAK devices stand out from the competition.
Internally though the differences are just as innovative; high power devices feature composite adiabatic technology designed for optimum thermal handling without compromising the careful electro/magnetic balance required to achieve leading performance while optimum isolation performance and reverse power handling is achieved by using a suite of high power resistive elements which utilise film technologies carefully selected from a choice of film technologies. All designs are vented with the position of the vents optimised as a result of careful analysis and design proving tests.
The Dundee site has been been producing coaxial isolators and circulators for almost 50 years. Throughout the decades our products have evolved, improving with each generation. This process continues and what we can say today is that our products are simply the best we have ever produced although we are working to make them even better! All common radar and communication bands are included in a portfolio that includes low and high power devices.
In the past 20 years these have all but been replaced by Smiths Interconnect|TRAK stainless steel bodied types. These compact and robust alternatives have continued to evolve to the point that today the threaded connector style has been superseded by the superior solid body/connector design. Available operating from 1 to 26GHz these devices feature connectors commensurate with the applied RF power and application. Smiths Interconnect|TRAK offers SMA, SMP and TNC types in both male and female orientations.
