A waveguide assembly is disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a waveguide assembly includes a circuit board, a housing and a waveguide filter channel. The circuit board has at least one waveguide interface formed from an electrically conductive material. The housing is configured to be attached to the circuit board so as to align with the at least one waveguide interface. The waveguide filter channel is formed between the circuit board and the housing, with the circuit board and the housing each forming at least a portion of the waveguide filter channel. The waveguide filter channel is configured to at least one of (i) receive a radio frequency signal from the at least one waveguide interface or (ii) output the radio frequency signal to the at least one waveguide interface.

Waveguide assembly

A multiport waveguide device is disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a multiport waveguide device includes a first receiving port structure configured to guide a first incoming RF signal, a second receiving port structure configured to guide a second incoming RF signal, a first transmitting port structure configured to guide a first outgoing RF signal, and a second transmitting port structure configured to guide a second outgoing RF signal. The multiport waveguide device also includes common port structure configured to simultaneously guide the first incoming RF signal, the second incoming RF signal, the first outgoing RF signal, and the second outgoing RF signal through a common port.
