WERBEL MICROWAVE
The WADC-0727-40-XXX is a high power 40 dB directional coupler covering 690 to 2700 MHz, supporting key cellular, LTE, and wireless infrastructure bands. Designed using an air dielectric coaxial structure, this coupler delivers low insertion loss, high directivity, and excellent power handling for forward and reverse signal monitoring.
Typical applications include RF power monitoring, transmitter protection, VSWR measurement, distributed antenna systems (DAS), base station infrastructure, and general-purpose RF test setups requiring accurate sampling of high-power signals across broadband frequencies.
The model is configurable and may be ordered in single or dual configurations. The input connector is offered with a standard N-Female, or an N-Male may be configured to directly connect to an amplifier output, thereby eliminating the need for cables and adapters, which may add loss and mismatch to the high-power output.
