Keysight 281A/B Adapters Operating and Service Manual Introduction Product Overview This chapter provides an overview of the Keysight 281A/B Adapters.
Introduction Product Overview Keysight 281 adapters provide a convenient means of coupling between waveguide and coaxial systems. Power can be transmitted in either direction, and each adapter covers the full frequency range of its waveguide size with an SWR of less than 1.30. The flanges are lapped to a slight, controlled convexity to assure minimum leakage at the waveguide joint.
