Summary:A radio frequency (RF) waveguide comprising a channel, a filter, and a support bridge. The channel can comprise an outer wall defining an inner cavity configured to propagate electromagnetic waves. The filter can be disposed in the inner cavity of the channel and can comprise a perimeter edge and an aperture. The support bridge can comprise a first interface connected to an inner surface of the outer wall at a first location, and a second interface connected to the filter at a position between the perimeter edge and the aperture of the filter to support the filter within the channel. The support bridge can remain in place as connected to the filter, and the filter and waveguide can operate without interference from the support bridge, meaning that the waveguide meets all performance specifications and functions as intended for a particular application even with the support bridge left in place.
