Antenna test centre opened in China
CommScope is opening a base station antenna testing facility in Suzhou, China, to ensure the performance of its Andrew Solutions antenna portfolio in all types of wireless network conditions.
“The performance and reliability of base station antenna technology becomes even more important to the user experience in 3G, 4G and the next generations of wireless networks,” said Ray Butler, vice president, base station antenna products and development, CommScope.
“The antenna performance assurance centre offers our Chinese users advanced testing services for ensuring the performance of their networks today and into the future.”
The centre will enable wireless operators and OEMs to conduct a number of performance, environmental and quality tests on base station antennas in less time and with increased accuracy.
“The most significant enhancement is our addition of a new 128-probe testing system in a building designed specifically for optimised verification, which offers enhanced speed, accuracy and ease of use for testing RF pattern performance,” said Butler.
“We also offer a variety of environmental tests and other quality and reliability measurements, as well as training that explains how to make and understand antenna measurements in the near-field antenna range.”
