Product Description
RFS SlimLine Antennas are designed for
microwave systems in all common frequency
ranges from 6 GHz to 40 GHz. The antennas are
cost-effective products for microwave point-to-point
transmission links. The antennas utilise a
conventional feed system and are available in
Standard, High and Ultra High performance
radiation characteristic. The Ultra High performance
antennas are available in single polarised (SU) as
well as in dual polarised versions (SUX). Antennas
with Ultra High Performance radiation
characteristics are required for use in networks
where there is a very high interference potential.
Antennas are available in 1 ft (0.3m) to 6 ft (1.8m)
diameters. All antennas include a radome which is
specially shaped (1 and 2ft) or flexible (4 and 6 ft) to
minimise its impact on the antennas electrical
characteristics. The antennas are easy to install. A
side strut is required only for 6 ft-antennas.

Product Description
FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide is constructed of
longitudinally continuous seam welded, highly
conductive copper tube, corrugated and precision
formed into an elliptical cross section. It is
manufactured in continuous lengths using a special
seam welding process developed by the RFS
organization.
The corrugation design achieves high transverse
stability, flexibility and crush strength for superior
handling and forming at an installation. The inherent
strength and flexibility of FLEXWELL waveguide
allows on location, a continuous length of
waveguide to be run directly from a tower-mounted
antenna to the equipment building, eliminating
flange joint discontinuities and the use of bends,
twists and flex sections associated with a rigid
rectangular waveguide system. Because of its
flexibility, FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide can be
easily transported to an installation site in coils or
on reels and then uncoiled as required during
installation.
FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide has set an industry
standard for excellent electrical performance. Each
waveguide has been carefully designed for low loss
and low VSWR in specific frequency bands. For
optimum system performance, there is no substitute
for FLEXWELL waveguide.
As part of the RFS manufacturing process, all
elliptical waveguides undergo several different
electrical tests. Prior to shipping, every length is
100% tested again for input VSWR, and undergoes
a twenty-four hour pressure test. This additional
testing is performed to guarantee conformance with
published specifications and to avoid any problems
in the field.
A FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide feeder requires
less planning and reduces installation costs when
compared to a feeder system using a rigid
rectangular waveguide. FLEXWELL waveguide is
available cut to length with factory attached
connectors or in continuous lengths for termination
in the field.
