The ACST 1217F-6A Broadband AMC is a high-performance active multiplication chain designed for millimeter-wave signal generation in laboratory, test & measurement, and radar applications. It extends a low-frequency RF input into the WR-8 waveguide band, delivering stable, high-output performance with excellent spectral purity and flat frequency response across its full operating range. The module is built in a compact, shielded metallic housing with standard SMA input and WR-8 waveguide output interfaces for straightforward system integration.
