Directional Couplers

EIA Rigid Line - High Directivity

These precision directional couplers are designed utilizing EIA rigid coaxial transmission line connectors in 7/8 and 1-5/8 line sizes on the mainline with a type N female secondary line output. They provide the ability to perform precision swept frequency measurements in the larger coaxial line sizes. These units offer high directivity and an accurate sample of forward or reflected power for use in variety of measurement applications.
