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 TETRA & UHF PIM testers are ideal for component testing in the laboratory and quality assurance and they are also valuable field tools, providing vital test results in TETRA & UHF networks. The specifications and measurement accuracy of our PIM analyzers are exceptional and deliver reliable results. AWT Global’s PIM S1L TETRA & UHF analyzers are very easy to operate; just the touch of a button to start any predefined test.

When public safety officers assign their staff to critical missions, they rely on the performance of their TETRA & UHF networks. Communication and data transmission must not experience any PIM distortion. As such, low PIM components and installations are required. PIM S1L TETRA & UHF helps to establish highest quality networks.
