Three Port Circulators
Sylatech has expertise in the design and manufacture of three port Y junction waveguide circulators. These can either be provided as discrete items or system integrated as required.

System integration
Circulators are passive, non-reciprocal devices that allow the rf signal to pass in one direction. As these devices are non-reciprocal they can be matched at all ports.
Our three port circulators are widely used in radar and telecommunications applications. In combination with Sylatech’s extensive waveguide expertise, Sylatech can provide complete waveguide assemblies for radar/communication systems including high-power duplexers utilising waveguide circulator technology.
