W. L. Gore & Associates has introduced a new line of GORE spaceflight microwave/RF assemblies optimized for Ka-band uplink and downlink satellite applications.
“The durable construction of the Type 5G Series of GORE Spaceflight Microwave/RF Assemblies provides outstanding shielding effectiveness and ensures reliable signal integrity with excellent insertion loss and return loss performance up to 32 GHz,” the company said in a statement. “They have been qualified for spaceflight applications in three separate phases—integration, launch, and in-orbit—to ensure consistently reliable performance for the duration of the mission.”
The Type 5G Series of GORE® Spaceflight Microwave/RF Assemblies can be terminated with either 2.92 mm straight-pin connectors (ZMQ) or 2.92 mm right-angle pin connectors (ZQA).
