Directional Coupler Connects 6.0 to 26.5 GHz

Well suited for electronic-warfare (EW), instrumentation and other applications requiring broad bandwidth, model 106026506 is a compact coaxial directional coupler that operates from 6.0 to 26.5 GHz. The stripline coupler offers 6-dB nominal coupling and maintains coupling flatness of ±0.5 dB across the frequency range. Insertion loss is less than 1.6 dB across the frequency range, while directivity exceeds 14 dB. The directional coupler, which is rated for average input power levels to 20 W and 3 kW peak power, exhibits maximum VSWR of 1.45:1 at any port. It is designed for an operating temperature range of -54 to +85°C. The coupler measures 1.12 × 0.53 × 0.64 in. and is supplied with female SMA connectors, but male SMA connections are available as an option.
