Doherty combiner product line covers major
communication bands ranging from 700 MHz to 2700 MHz. Each model is optimized for the center
frequency of targeted frequency band. However, as new spectrum is being released, the preâdesigned standard models can be tuned in customer applications to
meet performance.
This document provides guidelines to tune these standard models for offâband applications.

There is a wide variety of coaxial connectors and cables available for use in the RF and Microwave spectrum. While often not much thought is given to these essential components, a misstep here can result in undesirable system degradation. Given that typical RF systems are comprised of any number of items, e.g. RF generators, amplifiers, attenuators, power meters, couplers, antennas, etc., it is not uncommon that a great deal of thought is given to these âhigh end devices while mundane items such as connectors and cables are often treated as an afterthought".
