Abstract Transversal forces as a result of asymmetric field generated by the fundamental power couplers have become a concern for low emittance beam in future accelerators. In pushing for smallest emittances, Cornell has finished a physics design for a symmetric coupler for superconducting accelerating cavities. This coupler consists of a rectangular waveguide that transforms into a coaxial line inside the beam pipe, eventually feeding the cavity. We will report on the RF design yielding to the extremely low transversal kick. In addition, heating, heat transfer and thermal stability of this coupler has been evaluated.
