This document describes techniques, apparatuses, and systems utilizing a high-isolation transition design for differential signal ports. A differential input transition structure includes a first layer and a second layer made of a conductive metal and a substrate positioned between the first and second layers. The second layer includes a first section that electrically connects to a single-ended signal contact point and to a first contact point of a differential signal port. The first section includes a first stub based on an input impedance of the single-ended signal contact point and a second stub based on a differential input impedance associated with the differential signal port. The second layer includes a second section that electrically connects to a second contact point of the differential signal port and to the first layer through a via housed in a pad. The second section includes a third stub associated with the differential input impedance.

A waveguide tube connecting member includes a first waveguide tube having a first waveguide path and a flange. The flange has a flange end surface extending from a first opening end of the first waveguide path toward an outer side in a tube radial direction, and a second flange outer peripheral surface which is a part of a first flange outer peripheral surface. The second flange outer peripheral surface is a surface formed in a shape in which a part of the flange has a cavity. An electric length from the first opening end of the flange end surface to the second flange outer peripheral surface along the tube radial direction is (2×N+1)/4 times a wavelength.
