Waveguide to Coaxial Transitions are an integral capability of the business. Smiths Interconnect offers a choice of connector type and orientation, pin/ socket interfaces to waveguide apertures with a choice of standard or custom flange details.
Smiths Interconnect offers a choice of “dc coupled” in line and orthogonal and “ac coupled” orthogonal types. For certain applications dc coupled transitions are most commonly used where thermal characteristics are a a key design consideration.
These stand-alone products can be integrated with waveguide or coaxial isolators to form iso-adapters. Smiths Interconnect’s capability and experience extends from 1.2 GHz (ATC radar) to 46 GHz for a space applications. Our adapters are tested using cables supplied by Smiths Interconnect|Florida RF labs.
