Atec Expandable User Manual

 Expandable PIM Analyzer for

Manufacturing and Laboratory.

 One Master Control Unit can control up

to 4 different RF Units.

 3 Measurement Modes: PIM Analyzer,

PIM over Time, PIM over Frequency
(Frequency Sweep).

 RF Units measure forward & reverse

PIM (2-port).

 Measures Intermodulation products

IM3, IM5 IM7, IM9, IM11 and IM13.

Information Technology Solutions

Passive Intermodulation (PIM) analyzers measure the
amount of unwanted intermodulation signals generated
by passive components. Increasing demand for wireless
data bandwidth requires networks that operate optimally.
Leading global wireless carriers use only low PIM
components to guarantee best possible quality of their
networks. Since PIM is detrimental to both, network
performance and capacity, low PIM components are vital
to achieve this goal.

PIM is caused by RF components that show non-linear
frequency behavior. Reducing PIM to a minimum must be
the ultimate goal for manufacturers of RF components.

RF Components that may cause PIM:

 Cables
 Connectors
 Antennas
 Attenuators, Loads
 Surge Protectors
 Filter, Diplexer, Duplexer
 Combiner, Splitter, Coupler

AWT’s Expandable PIM Analyzers grow with widening
manufacturing requirements. The Main Control Unit
can handle up to four RF Units with different
frequency bands. To minimize expenses, customers
can choose to start with only one basic frequency
band and install additional RF Units later when
needed. There is no need to send units back to the
factory for the upgrade; additional RF Units can be
installed in the field.

Whether growing with demand, or offering greatest

flexibility with four frequency bands, AWT’s

Expandable PIM Analyzers are a cost efficient
solution for manufacturing and laboratory.

Production testing requires fast
and highly reliable PIM
analyzers. As the spectrum of
manufactured products widens,
PIM analysis may have to be
performed on additional
frequencies. Our Expandable
PIM Analyzer is can be
equipped with one to four
different RF Units.

PIM ANALYZ ERS FOR
PRODU CTION

Production analyzers have to
perform reliably 24 /7.
Besides Expandable PIM
Analyzers for up to 4 frequency
bands, AWT - Global offers
also Single and Dual band
analyzers.
