The rectangular orientation of the two rectangular waveguides are at right angles only to simplify the mechanical design.
The fact they are one way or the other just means you have to match the connecting device with their orientation.

It this just standard stuff i should defaultly understand? This is the first time ive ever seen an OMT in person, but it seems something is off or im making things to complicated, either are equal candidates.

I know the underlying issue probably has to do with why integra WS is not advertised as a 2+0 system. There are no alignment markers or pins between the radio interface and the OMT interface. Im assuming when aligning waveguide slots you have very little marging for error. Attached are the radio and omt interface, and the omt antenna interface, the alignment pins are pointed out with screwdrivers, there are no pins for the radio side and theyre threaded holes that dont look like they would align. Anybody have advice on making sure these line up. Or is there a margin allowed. We had to give up our power margin on this link to get approval because the pcn was contested, i dont have any spare dbs to give
