Waveguide to coaxial transitions is an integral capability and we offer a choice of connector type and orientation, pin/socket interfaces to waveguide apertures withf standard or custom flange details. Waveguide iso-adapters span from S to Ka-Band and include coaxial and waveguide isolators with transitions to waveguide and integrated assemblies including filtering and waveguide windows. Waveguide couplers, combiners and splitters are designed to complement our waveguide isolators and terminations.
