Waveguide Sliding Short
A Waveguide Sliding Short is a precision device used in microwave systems to adjust the phase or impedance at a specific point within a waveguide. It consists of a movable short-circuit that slides along the waveguide, allowing for fine-tuning of the waveguide’s electrical length. This tool is indispensable in research, calibration, and testing applications, offering high accuracy and versatility in adjusting microwave signals.
Dolph Microwave’s Waveguide Sliding Shorts represent a pinnacle of precision engineering in the realm of microwave system components. These adjustable, movable devices are designed to fine-tune the electrical length within a waveguide, offering exceptional control over phase and impedance adjustments. Crafted from high-quality materials and available in a wide range of waveguide sizes, from WR2300 to WR10, our sliding shorts are essential tools for calibration, testing, and research applications.
