High Power Single and Dual Directional Couplers
RLC Electronics’ high power directional couplers offer accurate coupling, low insertion loss and high directivity in a compact package. The standard units are optimized for 2 octave bandwidths and are available with a choice of coupling values. These units are ideal for sampling forward and reflected power with a negligible effect on the transmission line and very low intermodulation products.

To designate the coupler desired use:
1: S for single, D for dual 2: Forward coupling value 30, 40 or 50dB 3: Reverse coupling value 30, 40 or 50dB (dual only) |
4: Main line connectors (input/output) MM (male/male), FF (female/female), MF (male/female), FM (female/male), |
Example: CHP-2080-D-40-40-FF is a 2-8GHz coupler with “N” female connectors on the main line
and 40dB forward and reverse coupling.
