Andrew F090CKS5 FlexTwist® WR90 Flexible Twistable Waveguide, 8.2–12.4 GHz, 1200 mm, CPR90G to PBR100
The Andrew F090CKS5 is a 1200 mm (47.24-inch) flexible, twistable rectangular waveguide assembly designed for microwave transmission systems operating from 8.2 to 12.4 GHz.
Part of the Andrew FlexTwist® series, this WR90 waveguide provides a flexible connection between microwave antennas, radio equipment, and rigid waveguide components where bending, twisting, or alignment adjustments are required.
The assembly features a CPR90G flange on one end and a PBR100 flange on the opposite end, allowing connections between compatible WR90 waveguide interfaces.
Designed for X-band microwave applications, the F090CKS5 has a specified VSWR of 1.13:1. Its flexible construction accommodates changes in routing and alignment while reducing mechanical stress on connected equipment.
The waveguide is suitable for point-to-point microwave communication systems, antenna feed assemblies, radar equipment, and other WR90 applications requiring a flexible, twistable interconnection.
