MMW Test and Measurement Product Applications

Banner Image ALT

Smiths Interconnect offers a wide range of configurable components for millimeter-wave test and measurement. Existing RF test and measurement equipment can often be combined with our components and assemblies to extend measurement capabilities to millimeter-wave frequencies. 

The benefits include:

  • Frequency extension of lower frequency equipment saves time and money
  • Expert applications assistance
  • We integrate custom assemblies to assure performance and interoperability

Several W-band application suggestions are shown below, however our frequency extenders are available in all millimeter-wave bands. Contact our Sales Department for your specific millimeter-wave test and measurement needs
