Agilent Technologies Inc. has introduced the E6607B EXT wireless communications test set and companion E6617A multiport adapter.
Made for non-signaling testing, the EXT/MPA combination increases test throughput and reduces the cost of test in the manufacturing of current- and next-generation smartphones and tablets that contain multiformat and multiband technologies.
The EXT is a one-box tester that includes a vector signal analyzer, vector signal generator, high-speed sequence analyzer and multiformat hardware. The compact and cost-effective MPA adds simultaneous receiver testing, sequential transmitter testing and simultaneous GPS testing of up to four dual-antenna devices at a time.
The EXT can be configured with a variety of X-Series measurement applications for cellular communications, wireless connectivity and digital audio/video. The EXT helps manufacturers achieve faster test times and increased yield.
