A supplier of on-demand microwave and RF components, Fairview Microwave, has released a line of 1.85, 2.4 and 2.92mm waveguide to coax adapters with operating ranges up to 65GHz. These waveguide adapters are ideal for numerous applications requiring a transition from coax to waveguide or vice versa, including SATCOM, wireless communications, industrial, test and measurement and defense systems.

Fairview’s ten new waveguide to coax adapters extend the company’s large portfolio to include millimeter wave frequency ranges with models in the K-band (18 to 26.5GHz) up to the V-band (50 to 65GHz). These coax to waveguide adapters offer excellent VSWR as low as 1.29:1, while also providing insertion loss performance as low as 0.3dB. Waveguide sizes available for these new models include WR-42, WR-28, WR-22, WR-19 and WR-15.

Fairview’s new waveguide to coax adapters feature a right-angle configuration, those with 2.92mm connectors use a UG-style square waveguide flange, 2.4 and 1.85mm connector versions use a UG-style circular waveguide flange. Both male and female connector options are available in each frequency band.”

Our waveguide to coax adapters allow us to expand our broad product selection above the 18GHz range and meet our customers’ application requirements up to 65GHz with an extensive line of millimeter wave transitions,” said Brian McCutcheon, Vice President and General Manager at Fairview Microwave.

All of the new waveguide to coax adapters from Fairview are in-stock and ready to ship now. For more detailed information, please visit here.
