Precautions for Installing Flexible Waveguides
The flexible waveguide can be bent only within its maximum twist angle and at the side with a larger area. The E-bend radius and
H-bend radius cannot be smaller than the minimum bending radius. For details about the minimum bending radius, see the
following table.
