Features & Benefits Robust and mass minimised range of couplers Optimized electrical performance Space qualified: vibration, thermal cycling, mechanical shock and where appropriate high power testing (including multipaction where required) Environmentally robust EMC shielding Connectors selected based on operating frequency and RF power Internal terminations and resistors analyzed to maintain reliability under fault conditions Couplers can be supplied as stand-alone components or integrated with Smiths Interconnect’s ferrite isolators and RF filters Applications GEO/MEO & LEO payloads Single and re-useable launch systems Ground, airborne, and naval systems
OverviewOur stand-alone coaxial couplers leverage the company’s internal design, manufacturing, and Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) capabilities to support spacecraft applications including launch vehicles and payloads in GEO/MEO and LEO orbits. Beyond offering couplers as components Smiths Interconnect can provide couplers incorporated within more complex passive assemblies, including ferrite isolators and RF filters, to offer solutions that optimize performance, volume, and mass.
