Description

These compact broad band couplers operate over

frequency bandwidths of 12 to 1 up to 36 to 1. Each

coupler is constructed in a rugged aluminum housing

with Stripline circuitry. The input, output and coupled

output ports are stainless steel SMA connectors.

The isolated port is terminated with a non-removable

precision 50 ohm termination. Custom variations of

these designs to specific requirements can also be

produced.
