WAVEGUIDE CIRCULATOR

Description

Waveguide Circulator

Key Application Summary:
The Waveguide Circulator is a non-reciprocal three-port device that directs RF signals in one direction while preventing reverse signal flow. It is widely used in radar, communication systems, and test equipment for efficient signal routing and isolation.
