Waveguide Power Combiner & 2-Way Magic Hybrid Tees
A magic tee is a four-port waveguide device that works as a waveguide power combiner or a 2-way power divider. Mi-Wave’s 630/635 Series E/H hybrid and magic tees consist of three mutually perpendicular flanged sections of a standard waveguide. Two of these sections sit symmetrically on the broad and narrow walls of the main tee section to provide E-plane and H-plane connections.
Note: Magic Tees can be used as a 2-way power divider by terminating the E-Plane port using the 580 Series Low Power Terminations
Note: Our website contains just a few types of Magic Hybrid Tees we build. Consult with us for your specific needs.

Magic Tee Models by Waveguide Band
Place this H2 directly above the existing model table (columns: Model, Band, Frequency Range, Isolation E-H, Insertion Loss, Power Imbalance). No new copy is needed; the table already holds 630/635 Series models from X-Band to V-Band.
How a Magic Tee Works as a Waveguide Power Combiner or Divider
Turn the existing note into a proper section: ‘A magic tee can be used as a 2-way power divider by terminating the E-plane port with a 580 Series low power termination.’ Link ‘low power termination’ to /millimeter-wave-products/terminations-load/. Add two sentences on how signals entering the sum and difference ports combine or split. Engineering to confirm the wording.
Applications
Add 3–4 short bullets, each linking to a relevant Mi-Wave page. Applications to confirm with engineering before publishing (typical uses for magic tees): power combining and dividing, balanced mixers, phase and amplitude comparison, and antenna feed networks.
Waveguide Power Combiner & Magic Tee FAQ
What is a waveguide power combiner?
A passive waveguide device that merges signals from two inputs into one output with low loss. A magic tee can do this and also works in reverse as a divider.
What is the difference between a magic tee and a hybrid tee?
Engineering to confirm the answer in Mi-Wave’s terms; the product name groups them as ‘E/H Hybrid and Magic Tees’.
