Circulators (three-port devices) and isolators (two-port devices with an integrated load) provide effective protection for sensitive components by directing the RF signal in a single direction. Essential for microwave systems, they reduce losses and reflections while improving the stability of RF transmissions.
Directional signal routing
Direct RF flow in a single direction to effectively protect sensitive components from reflections.
Reduction of reflected waves
Limit unwanted power reflections, improving equipment reliability and service life.
Improved RF stability
Help stabilize the performance of amplifiers and receivers in microwave environments.
Low insertion loss
Maintain excellent transmission levels while ensuring optimal isolation.
Wide frequency compatibility
Suitable for a broad range of RF and microwave bands for test, telecommunications, and defense applications.
High power handling
In the case of circulators, they are designed to withstand high power levels without performance degradation.
Easy integration
Compact form factors and a variety of connector options simplify installation in existing RF chains.
