Description

A circular waveguide (WG) to coaxial adapter is used to transition RF signals between a circular waveguide and a coaxial transmission line, typically for systems requiring mode conversion or compact interconnects. Here’s a technical overview: - Function: Converts circular waveguide modes (often TE₁₁) to coaxial TEM mode with minimal reflection. - Frequency Range: Varies by model—e.g., Panda Microwave’s W07C series spans from 1.76 GHz to 38.8 GHz, depending on inner diameter. - VSWR: Typically ≤ 1.25, ensuring good impedance matching. - Bandwidth: Around 15–20%, depending on design. - Connectors: N-Female, SMA-Female, or 2.92 mm-Female, selected based on frequency and power needs. - Construction: Precision-machined aluminum or brass with optional plating for corrosion resistance.
