1-18Ghz 90 degree hybrid coupler

LDC-1/18-90S hybrid coupler is a high-performance RF component designed for efficient signal distribution and combination across a broad frequency range. Covering 1GHz to 18GHz, it caters to diverse applications like communication systems, test and measurement setups, and radar technologies, where wideband operation is crucial.

Equipped with SMA connectors, it offers reliable and standardized connectivity. SMA connectors are widely favored for their compact size and excellent impedance matching, ensuring stable signal transmission with minimal loss when paired with compatible cables or devices.

With an isolation of 17dB, the coupler effectively reduces unwanted signal leakage between ports. This high isolation helps maintain signal integrity, preventing interference that could degrade system performance—especially vital in multi-signal environments where signal purity is key.

Its VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) of 1.4 is another standout feature. A VSWR close to 1 indicates efficient power transfer, as it means little signal is reflected back to the source. This ensures the coupler operates with high efficiency, making it suitable for applications where power utilization and signal stability are critical.
