BPIM Test Equipment
Passive Intermodulation (PIM) occurs when multiple RF signals encounter defects in materials or workmanship in an RF path. These defects behave like a mixer causing noise to be generated at mathematical combinations of the original carrier frequencies. PIM interference that falls in the receive band of a wireless system elevates the noise floor resulting in high dropped call rates, call blocking, slow data transmission speeds and decreased system capacity.
Kaelus, formerly Summitek Instruments, is the industry leader in Passive Intermodulation test solutions. Since 1996 Kaelus has supplied RF equipment manufacturers around the world with precision test instruments to perform this critical test. From initial product design through high volume manufacturing, Kaelus offers a wide range of PIM test solutions that enable equipment manufacturers to quickly and confidently verify the performance of their products.
