Description
The Andrew F042KKS5 is a 1200 mm (47.24-inch) flexible, twistable rectangular waveguide designed for microwave transmission systems operating between 17.7 and 26.5 GHz.
Part of Andrew's FlexTwist series, it allows the waveguide to bend and twist to accommodate alignment differences, movement, and routing constraints between microwave radios and antennas.
The assembly uses WR42 rectangular waveguide with PBR220 flanges on both ends. It supports an average power rating of 100 watts, a peak power rating of 39 kW, and a specified VSWR of 1.35:1.
CommScope+1
Typical applications include 18 GHz and 23 GHz microwave backhaul links, point-to-point radio installations, and microwave antenna feed connections.
