  • Extremely fast PIM measurements
  • Integrated Distance-to-PIM for fast and reliable localization of PIM sources
  • Optional wideband VNA functionality on the same test port for highly accurate VSWR mismatch positioning
  • Maximum flexibility: Support for up to 6 filterscovering different frequency bands
  • Cost-efficient: Broadband base unitsupports multiple applications and configurations
  • Minimized downtime:
    • Plug-and-play filter concept
    • Intuitive operation
    • Replaceable dust filters for continuous operation

Applications

  • Production environments with frequent frequency band changes
  • Laboratory measurements requiring the highest level of precision, repeatability and modularity

 

Features

  • High-resolution distance-to-PIM-source measurement (software option): Enables precise localization of PIM source
  • Ultra-low residual PIM: typically < –173 dBc: Ensures highly accurate and reliable PIM measurements
  • Field-replaceable test ports: Provide maximum flexibility and reduced service downtime
  • Remote control via LAN using SCPI commands: Supports seamless integration into automated test systems and production environments
  • Wideband VNA at the PIM test port (hardware option)

Multi-Port, Multi-Frequency PIM Test Solution – Minimize Test Time and Mating Cycles

Rosenberger’s innovative multi-port, multi-frequency PIM test solution ensures maximum measurement precision while delivering significant time savings and an optimized return on investment (ROI).

Modular Design

  • Multiple base units and filters
  • Combiner unit
  • Direct connection to the device under test (DUT) via PIM test cables and quick-lock adapters
  • Fast and efficient PIM testing

Benefits

  • Reduced test times and fewer connector mating cycles
  • Improved measurement efficiency
  • Optimized utilization of test equipment (total cost of ownership)
  • Reduced complexity of the test setup
  • Minimal cabling
  • Easy system scalability
  • Savings in capital and operating expenditures

Example of a high-band test configuration

  • One connection towards DUT on 4 high-band ports
  • PIM test with 4 high-band ports, 3 different bands simultaneously in one connection
  • Overall test time is significantly shorter in sweep mode (PIM test including cable connection)
