Pasternack has just introduced a new series of waveguide straight sections, bends and twists that are regularly used in satellite communication, radar and airport security system applications.

The company's new waveguide transmission components feature high frequency ranges from 90GHz to 220GHz in three waveguide bands, with waveguide sizes including WR-8, WR-6 and WR-5 and UG-387/U mod round cover style flanges. The waveguide straights are offered in 1", 3", 6", 9" and 12" lengths; the waveguide bends are available in 90 degrees E-plane and 90 degrees H-plane configurations, and the waveguide twists are offered in 90 degrees, 45 degrees right-hand and 45 degrees left-hand configurations. Furthermore, all new high-frequency waveguide components provide low VSWR performance of 1.15:1 typical.

“We are pleased to offer this new line of high-frequency waveguide straights, bends and twists to satisfy our customers’ demands for waveguide components supporting frequencies up to 220GHz. These new products complement our growing portfolio of waveguide components, giving our customers even more options available for same-day shipping,” said Steven Pong, product manager at Pasternack.
