| Our initial bid erroneously stated the RF Output Connector would be Type 1-4/ 8 EIA Female. In fact, neither th e Type 1-4/8 EIA nor the Type 1-5/8 EIA connector is suitable for thi s application. Type 1-5/8 EIA connectors are rated to a maximum | |
| frequency of app roximately 3 GHz, which excludes it from use with a 2.5 to 7.5 GHz RF output: Type 1-5/8 EIA female, rear panel amplifier. The T7525-2000 will incorporate a WRD250 ridged waveguide connector on | |
| the rear panel. WRD250 is rated for operation bet ween 2.6 and 7.8 GHz and can | |
| handle the power required for this application. It will operate below 2.6 GHz, but there will be some attanuation . | |
