About WR1800 Waveguide and Specifications
WR1800 waveguides are transmission line structures that guide electromagnetic waves. Certain RF components may help with other processes, depending on the function of the device. These components often assist with measuring, coupling, calibrating, transmitting, combining, dividing, terminating, and/or controlling signals at a specified frequency.
In high-power microwave and RF engineering, WR1800 is a size classification of waveguide components. The ‘WR’ indicates the material, Waveguide Rectangular. The ‘1800’ indicates the size of the inner dimension at the opening of the waveguide is 18.00 inches (457.2 mm). See table below for more specifications and information about WR1800.
| EIA Standard | IEC Standard | Frequency Range | Inner Dimensions (mm) |
| WR1800 Waveguide | R5 Waveguide | 0.45 to 0.63 GHz | 18.00 in. x 9.00 in. (457.2 mm x 228.6 mm) |
A common center frequency for WR1800 waveguide components is 500 MHz.
