Exceed Microwave
Wideband Waveguide Diplexer
Exceed Microwave’s WC-Series waveguide diplexers can provide very wide passbands and also comes in small sizes. DPX-WC-22-28-34 is a WR34 diplexer cover-ing nearly the entire waveguide operating frequency band. Each channel bandwidth of DPX-WC-22-28-34 is roughly 20 percent while maintaining very good return loss at all ports. The size is only 1.5 in. × 1.8 in. × 0.9 in., which allows waveguide assemblies to be compact. WC-Series diplexers are available in different waveguide sizes. Exceed Microwave designs and manufactures high performance waveguide and coaxial filters.
