The KBM9300400 is a 4×4 Butler matrix for beamforming in the 30-40 GHz range, with 2.4 mm female connectors. It has a maximum phase imbalance of ±15 degrees, maximum amplitude imbalance of ±1.3 dB, insertion loss less than 12 dB, minimum isolation of 12 dB, and maximum VSWR of 2.1. The unit measures 3.68 inches long, 2.80 inches wide, and 0.81 inches high.
The NEW KRYTAR 4×4 Butler Matrix uses KRYTAR’s high-performance 90- and 180-degree Hybrid Couplers providing super phase accuracy, amplitude imbalance, stability and repeatability. A Butler matrix is a beamforming network used to feed a phased array of antenna elements. Its purpose is to control the direction of a beam, or beams, of radio transmission.
KRYTAR’s Butler Matrix can be utilized as a beamforming network used to feed a phased array of antenna elements with the purpose to control the direction of a beam, or beams, of radio transmission. The advantage over other methods of angular beamforming is the simplicity of use in a variety of applications. KRYTAR’s 4×4 Butler Matrix, Model KBM9300400, is the ideal choice for antenna array beamforming, 5G NR (New Radio), Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, mmWave, MIMO (Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output) radio links, multipath simulation and performance evaluation, and many other upcoming applications.
KRYTAR’s technological advances provide excellent operating performance of this new 4×4 Butler Matrix. Covering the frequency range from 30.0 to 40.0 GHz this Butler Matrix provides ±1.3 dB of maximum Amplitude Imbalance and maximum Phase Imbalance of ±15 degrees. This Butler Matrix exhibits Insertion Loss of < 12 dB with Maximum Input and Output VSWR of 2.0:1 dB and Isolation of 12 dB. Average Power rating is 20 watts.
Model KBM9300400 Butler Matrix is a compact package measuring just 3.68 inches (L) x 2.80 inches (W) x 0.81 inches (H), and comes with standard 2.4mm coaxial female connectors.
