Accelerate mmWave & THz System Development

XGY offers a comprehensive suite of active waveguide modules that simplify the complexity of high-frequency system integration. By providing standardized, pre-tested building blocks, we help engineers reduce integration risk and accelerate time-to-market.

Whether you need to extend a frequency chain, bring up Tx/Rx front-ends, or develop a sensitive receiver front-end, the modular approach supports flexible scaling and reuse across different frequency bands (Q, U, V, E, W, F, D, G, H, J bands).

Fit check

Use this product when the requirement matches the published envelope.

Strong fit

  • Projects centred on mmWave signal chains
  • Projects centred on sub-THz test benches
  • Projects centred on frequency extension benches
  • Requirements that benefit from Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) and Power Amplifiers (PA)

Review alternatives

  • Requirements outside the published voltage, current, power or frequency envelope
  • Projects without a defined DUT, site power, interface or acceptance method
  • Simple bench work where a lower-cost standard supply would meet the requirement
  • RFQs that cannot yet specify protection, cooling, cabling or control boundaries

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the mmWave Active Waveguide Modules used for?

The mmWave Active Waveguide Modules is part of XGY Tek's THz Modules catalogue, supplied to engineering teams worldwide for laboratory, production, and field test workflows. XGY Active Waveguide modules provide standardized amplifier, multiplier, mixer, and converter building blocks for 33 to 500 GHz mmWave and sub-THz signal chains. The portfolio supports faster bring-up of Tx/Rx front-ends, extension chains, and test fixtures.

Which mmWave Active Waveguide Modules specifications should buyers compare first?

Start with Frequency: 33 - 500 GHz; Waveguide Sizes: WR-22 to WR-2.2; LNA Coverage: 33 to 340 GHz; PA Coverage: 40 to 260 GHz. Buyers should also confirm interface, software integration, accessories, calibration documentation, lead time, and acceptance requirements before purchase.

Which applications is the mmWave Active Waveguide Modules typically matched to?

Typical applications listed for the mmWave Active Waveguide Modules include mmWave signal chains; sub-THz test benches; frequency extension benches; Tx/Rx front-end bring-up. If the required range, channel count, power level, environmental condition, or automation interface differs from these scenarios, XGY Tek should review the configuration before quotation.

When should buyers consider another THz Modules option instead of the mmWave Active Waveguide Modules?

Compare alternatives when the required measurement range, output power, channel count, bandwidth, software workflow, fixture design, or documentation package does not match the published mmWave Active Waveguide Modules specifications. XGY Tek can recommend a different model or custom-scoped option during quotation.
