	The CLIC RF frequency has been changed in 2008 from the initial 30 GHz to the European X-band 11.9942 GHz permitting beam independent power production using klystrons for accelerating structure testing. X-band klystron test facilities at 11.424 GHz are operated at SLAC and at KEK, and these facilities are used by CLIC study in the frame of the X-band structure collaboration for testing accelerating structures scaled to that frequency. Generally RF components are used in the transmission and the transformation of radio frequency signals generated by the power supply. The operating range of the devices accommodates the frequencies from 11.424 to 11.9942 GHz. RF components are needed for the Klystron test stand at CERN, and also for the X-FEL projects at PSI and Sincrotrone Trieste. Currently CERN is ordering tens of these companies to industry. The engineering design of the RF components (high power and compact loads, bi-directional couplers, X-band splitters, hybrids, phase shifters, variable power attenuators) and the main fabrication processes are presented here.

The CLIC RF frequency has been changed in 2008 from the initial 30 GHz to the European X-band 11.9942 GHz permitting beam independent power production using klystrons for accelerating structure testing. X-band klystron test facilities at 11.424 GHz are operated at SLAC and at KEK, and these facilities are used by CLIC study in the frame of the X-band structure collaboration for testing accelerating structures scaled to that frequency*. Generally RF components are used in the transmission and the transformation of radio frequency signals generated by the power supply. The operating range of the devices accommodates the frequencies from 11.424 to 11.9942 GHz. RF components are needed for the Klystron test stand at CERN, and also for the X-FEL projects at PSI and Sincrotrone Trieste. Currently CERN is ordering tens of these companies to industry. The engineering design of the RF components (high power and compact loads, bi-directional couplers, X-band splitters, hybrids, phase shifters, variable power attenuators) and the main fabrication processes are presented here.
