Limited Fan-out Transceiver Test Systems for Radio Testing

The limited fan-out transceiver test system is constructed as a reduced mesh matrix. A port connects to only X number of its neighboring ports. The number of its neighboring ports can vary depending on the application. By reducing the number of internal paths through the matrix, the size and cost of the test system is reduced. The reduced number of internal paths allows us to offer a greater number of ports. More ports means a greater number of radios to be tested simultaneously. The programmable attenuators can be remotely controlled to simulate static or dynamic environments.

In the configuration column of the below table, we use the term LC to describe the number of neighboring ports each port is internally connected.

• 16 Port LC8: 16 Ports with each port connected to its 8 neighboring ports
• 32 Port LC16: 32 Ports with each port connected to its 16 neighboring ports
• 48 Port LC16: 48 Ports with each port connected to its 16 neighboring ports

The reduced mesh is our latest type of test system to be added to the JFW website. If you do not find a model that meets your requirements, please contact us or use our Inquiry Form.  JFW does not charge NREs for new test system models.
