Ka-Band Waveguide RF Components

Waveguide Components for Ka-Band

Most Ka band waveguide components are very wide band working in the 18-40GHz range in waveguide sizes WRD180, WR51, WR42, WR34 or WR28. In addition they are poorly spec’d and very expensive. With new applications opening in narrow communication bands in the Ka Band region, ATM has decided to design a new line of waveguide components dedicated to these new narrow bands in waveguide sizes WRD180, WR51, WR42, WR34 and WR28, all with enhanced performance.

In doing so we have greatly improved the RF specs where needed and reduced the cost at the same time. We offer products covering 3 or 4 of these new bands but we are able to adjust and change to any new band that opens up in the 18-40 GHz range very easily.

The latest satellites are currently using Ka-Band for uplink and downlink communication. Other manufacturers of waveguide components for these applications are producing wide-band components that are expensive due to their specifications. 

ATM is now offering specific narrow band components that handle uplink frequencies from 27.5 GHz to 31.0 GHz and downlink frequencies from 18.3 GHz to 20.2 GHz. By narrowing the bandwidth of the Ka-Band waveguide components, ATM can offer products with better specifications and better pricing.

ATM offers a complete product line of waveguide components for Ka-Band that includes adapters, attenuators, power dividers, phaseshifters, couplers, terminations, horn antenna, quick disconnects, flexible waveguides and more.
