The circulator is a four-port, differential phase shift device which can be configured as an isolator by terminating two of the ports. The high isolation, low insertion loss, low VSWR (high return loss), and high power handling typical of these ferrite devices make them ideal for use with frequency sources, amplifiers, and receivers.

The series FLP low pass filter provides high rejection and excellent selectivity for frequencies above the corner frequency. The filter covers 18 to 110 GHz in seven waveguide bands. The insertion loss is 1 dB in K-Band and increases to 1.6 dB (max) in W-Band. The waveguide cut-off frequency determines the rejection at the lower band edge. This filter has a wide stopband, rejecting up to three times the highest passband frequency.

The series FHP high pass filter is designed and constructed to provide a sharp skirt selectivity of low frequency with minimum insertion loss in the passband. The typical insertion loss is 0.7 dB in K-Band, and increases to about 1.5 dB in W-Band. The insertion loss is determined by the corner frequency and selectivity.
