Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a waveguide gasket arrangement arranged for electrically sealing a waveguide interface between a first waveguide end and a second waveguide end, where the waveguide gasket arrangement comprises a first plurality of electrically conducting members connected to a first common structure along a first circumference. The waveguide gasket arrangement further comprises a second plurality of electrically conducting members connected to a second common structure along a second circumference. For each one of the first plurality of electrically conducting members and the second plurality of electrically conducting members there is a corresponding first sub-plurality of electrically conducting members which are intended to contact a waveguide end, and a second sub-plurality of electrically conducting members which are intended to contact a corresponding intermediate electrically conducting structure that is positioned between the first plurality of electrically conducting members and the second plurality of electrically conducting members.
