RLC Electronics' high power high directivity directional couplers offer accurate coupling (+/- 1.0dB), low insertion loss (0.1 dB to 0.35 dB max) and greater than 35 dB directivity in both directions.
These high power couplers are offered with 500 W to 1,000 W average power handling up to 18 GHz, as well
Source: RLC Electronics as 100 W versions up to 40 GHz. Couplers are provided in both single and dual directional construction, typically over a two-octave bandwidth or less. RLC can utilize SC or 7/16 connectors on the main line, should this be needed to meet customer designs. Typical applications for these high power couplers include (but are not limited to):
• High power sampling and signal leveling
• Traveling wave tube amplifier (TWTA)/high power amplifier (HPA) test beds
• Calibration labs
• Power monitoring
• Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) measurements
