Description
Andrew F137CHS5 FlexTwist® WR137 Flexible Twistable Waveguide, 6.425–7.125 GHz, 1200 mm (48"), CPR137G to PDR70
The Andrew F137CHS5 is a 1200 mm (47.24-inch) flexible, twistable rectangular waveguide assembly designed for microwave transmission systems operating between 6.425 and 7.125 GHz.
Part of the Andrew FlexTwist® series, this WR137 waveguide provides a flexible interconnection between microwave antennas, radio equipment, and rigid waveguide transmission components.
The assembly features a CPR137G flange on one end and a PDR70 flange on the opposite end, allowing connection between compatible WR137 waveguide interfaces.
The flexible construction permits controlled bending and twisting during installation, helping compensate for mechanical alignment differences and simplifying waveguide routing between microwave components.
FlexTwist waveguide assemblies are designed to help isolate vibration and reduce mechanical stress on connected microwave equipment, particularly where rigid waveguide sections would make alignment difficult.
The F137CHS5 is suitable for point-to-point microwave communications, antenna feed systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and other microwave transmission installations requiring a flexible 6 GHz waveguide connection.
The 48-inch length and mixed flange configuration make this assembly particularly useful for connecting equipment with different WR137 flange interfaces.
