	Cornell is designing a new standalone, compact SRF cryomodule which uses cryocoolers in place of liquid helium for cooling. One of the biggest challenges in implementing such a system is designing a high-power input coupler which is able to be cooled by the cryocoolers without any additional liquid cryogenics. Due to the limited heat load capacity of the cryocoolers at 4.2 K, this requires very careful thermal isolation of the 4.2 K portion of the coupler and thorough optimization of the RF behavior to minimize losses. This paper will present the various design considerations which enabled the creating of a conduction-cooled 1.3 GHz input coupler capable of delivering up to 100 kW CW RF power.

In addition, these systems offer robust, non-expert, turn-key operation, making SRF technology significantly more accessible for smaller-scale applications in fields such as industry, national security, medicine, environmental sustainability, etc. To fully realize these systems, many technical and operational challenges must be overcome. These include properly cooling the SRF cavity via thermal conduction and designing high-power (~ 100 kW continuous) RF couplers which dissipate minimal heat (~ 1 W) at 4.2 K. This presentation will discuss these challenges and the solutions which have been developed at Cornell University and elsewhere.
