COUPLERS, DIRECTIONAL
200-500 MHz, STRIPLINE
GENERAL INFORMATION
KDI/Triangle’s Stripline Couplers, Series CO, cover 6, 10, 20, and 30 dB
coupling values. These units feature high directivity and low VSWR and
are conservatively rated to ensure the most reliable service and perfor-
mance under severe environmental conditions.

Notes:
1. The peak and average power handling capability of the couplers
apply if the main line is terminated in a 1.25 maximum VSWR for the
6 and 10 dB couplers, and in a 1.75 maximum VSWR for the 20 and
30 dB couplers.
2. Rugged 4 hole connector construction insures mechanical superiority.
3. A 50 ohm termination is supplied on each unit delivered. Power rating
is 1.0 watts at +25°C.
