mmWave Testing Solution
Many industries and applications utilize higher frequency mmWave bands. These industries include medical, military and defense, automotive, IoT and consumer devices, and communications.
For K band, L band, M band, and W band frequencies, we have vector network analyzers that provide a scalable solution for millimeter-wave measurements. USB VNAs have low latency for measurements because the software and any necessary automation to support testing are all processed on one computer separate from the measurement module.
Because time-domain reflectometry (TDR) is a standard software feature with Copper Mountain Technologies’ VNAs, it lowers the cost of the test system and makes testing mmWave frequencies much more simple and more affordable.
CobaltFx Frequency Extension System for mmWave Measurements
CobaltFx cost-effective millimeter-wave frequency extension system allows you to build a scalable and affordable 5G and mmWave testing solution, offered with four extension frequency bands:
CobaltFx FET1854 Frequency Extension System, 18 to 54 GHz
18 GHz - 54 GHz
CobaltFx FEV-15 Frequency Extension System, 50 to 75 GHz
50 GHz - 75 GHz
CobaltFx FEV-12 Frequency Extension System, 60 to 90 GHz
60 GHz - 90 GHz
CobaltFx FEV-10 Frequency Extension System, 75 to 110 GHz
75 GHz - 110 GHz
The system can be anchored by your choice of four vector network analyzers:
C4209 2-Port 9 GHz Analyzer, Frequency Extension Compatible
100 kHz - 9 GHz
C4409 4-Port 9 GHz Analyzer, Frequency Extension Compatible
100 kHz - 9 GHz
C4220 2-Port 20 GHz Analyzer, Frequency Extension Compatible
100 kHz - 20 GHz
C4420 4-Port 20 GHz Analyzer, Frequency Extension Compatible
100 kHz - 20 GHz
A CobaltFx system comes with all necessary standard length cables. The total cost of the system depends on the selected VNA. The extenders are packaged in small and versatile enclosures that allow for flexible port arrangements. The CobaltFx Frequency Extension System can be used in the field, in the laboratory, and in production testing for many applications.
In many cases, signal integrity is imperative in millimeter-wave testing. Learn tips for signal integrity and VNA measurements from this eBook made by Microwave Journal for CMT.
