The Model DC3010A is a high power, ultra-broadband dual directional coupler with excellent performance
characteristics over a range of more than 14 octaves. This dual directional coupler is a convenient means of
simultaneously monitoring forward and reflected power in RF power systems using normal laboratory
oscilloscopes, voltmeters, power meters and spectrum analyzers. The Model DC3010A is particularly
recommended for use with our "A" and "W" series amplifiers, and other amplifiers operating within the
frequency and power range.
