1. A surface mount constructed millimeter wave transceiver device comprising:
a printed circuit board having a first waveguide port and a second waveguide port;
a diplexer surface mounted to a first side of the printed circuit board, the diplexer comprising a low frequency waveguide port and a high frequency waveguide port each coupled to an antenna port;
a transmitter and a receiver surface mounted to a second side of the printed circuit board, located opposite the first side of the printed circuit board, wherein the transmitter and the receiver comprise a transmitter waveguide port and a receiver waveguide port, respectively, that are configured to be aligned to the first waveguide port and the second waveguide port of the printed circuit board, respectively, wherein the diplexer is configured to be surface mounted to the printed circuit board in either a first orientation with the low frequency waveguide port aligned with the first waveguide port and the high frequency waveguide port aligned with the second waveguide port, or in a second orientation with the low frequency waveguide port aligned with the second waveguide port and the high frequency waveguide port aligned with the first waveguide port.
