Information Technology Solutions

Passive Intermodulation (PIM) is an unwanted mixing effect caused by non-linearity of passive components in the RF path of telecommunication systems. PIM diverts signal energy to other frequencies (spurious signals). This can generate interfering signals that may fall into receiving bands causing serious degradation of system performance.

Causes of PIM:

 Dissimilar metals with different electrical properties as

well as corroded components and structures.

 Ferromagnetic metals like iron, nickel and steel, show

hysteresis effects when RF energy is applied.

 Irregular contact areas, even on a microscopic scale,

cause an inconsistent flow of electrons, generating inhomogeneous electrical fields.

 Spark discharges that may happen by accidental “hot”

connections and disconnections create craters on the

connectors’ surfaces and lead to chemical reactions.

PIM S1L testers are ideal for component testing in the laboratory and/or during quality control. They provide a wealth of features that deliver accurate and reliable results. They are very easy to operate; it takes just one click to start a predefined test.

Modern telecommunication technologies demand PIM testing of network infrastructures and their components. Low PIM components are particularly important when wireless frequencies are combined. Signal degradation caused by PIM causes loss of capacity, which translates directly into dissatisfied customers as well as reduced revenues for the operators. Low PIM components are key to network optimization. .

Laboratories and Quality Control Departments demand accurate and reliable test instruments. With this in mind, AWT has introduced the S1L PIM tester series. This product line offers a wealth of features that are ideal for test and research. These instruments easy to operate and can document test results as PDF, CSV or JPG (Screen Shot). The wide adjustable Tx power range (15dBm to 44 dBm) allows to test conform to IEC62037 specification, but it allows also to measure low power rating components.

PIM ANALYZ ERS FOR PRODU CTION

PIM Production analyzers have to perform 24/7. AWT - Global offers single and dual band PIM analyzers for this job. Also available: expandable systems for up to four frequency bands.
