WR650 Waveguide Components: Details and Specifications
WR650 waveguides are transmission lines used for guiding electromagnetic waves. Components often support a myriad of other processes. Depending on the function of the component, they may help in circulating, coupling, transmitting, combining, sampling, controlling, mixing, dividing, and/or terminating signals at a specified frequency.
In RF and microwave engineering, WR650 waveguide components are a range of products and solutions in the same size classification. The ‘WR’ stands for Waveguide Rectangular. The following number, ‘650’ indicates the inner width dimension at the opening of the waveguide, in hundredths of an inch. So, a WR650 waveguide component is made of rectangular waveguide, and it has an inner dimension at the opening of the waveguide that is 6.50 inches (165.1 mm).
Other useful information and detailed specifications for WR650 waveguide includes:
| EIA Standard | IEC Standard | Frequency Range | Frequency Band | Inner Dimensions (mm) |
| WR650 Waveguide | R14 Waveguide | 1.15 to 1.72 GHz | L-Band | 6.50 in. x 3.25 in. (165.1 mm x 82.55 mm) |
Three common center frequencies for WR650 components includes: 1300 MHz, 1497 MHz, and 1575 MHz.
