Product overview
The R&S®CMP180 radio communication tester is a future-ready non-signaling test solution for the research and development, validation and production testing of wireless devices. Its frequency, bandwidth and RF capability cover the latest wireless technologies, among them Wi-Fi 6E, Wi-Fi 7, Wi-Fi 8 and 5G NR FR1. Twice the analyzers (2x VSA), twice the generators (2x VSG) and twice the RF ports (2x8) let several technologies and several devices be measured in parallel in one instrument. Combined into an R&S®CMPflexx system, it scales to four analyzers (4x VSA), four generators (4x VSG) and four times eight RF ports (4x8) for WLAN 4x4 true MIMO testing.
Key features
- Frequency up to 8 GHz and bandwidth up to 500 MHz for Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax), Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), Wi-Fi 8 (802.11bn) and 5G NR FR1 testing
- Leading EVM performance and high output power meet the demands of OTA measurements
- Two independent RF channels (2x VSA / 2x VSG) and 2x8 RF ports support parallel multi-technology measurements
- Built-in self-alignment adjusts accuracy on site at any time, with no need to return the instrument for calibration
- Stacking two CMP180 units forms an R&S®CMPflexx system and extends the platform to WLAN 4x4 true MIMO testing
- The Smart Channel function divides the tester into several sub-instruments, improving utilization and cutting the number of test stations
- Arbitrary waveform (ARB) generator runs the supplied turnkey waveforms or custom waveforms created with R&S®WinIQSIM2
- R&S®CMsquares gives one consistent browser-based user experience from R&D through to volume production
- One instrument serves the whole lifecycle, from engineering validation test (EVT) and design validation test (DVT) to production validation test (PVT) and mass production (MP)
- The R&S®WMT wireless automated testing framework adds ultra-fast automated test equipment (ATE) capability for R&D and production
Typical applications
- Non-signaling testing of Wi-Fi 6E / Wi-Fi 7 / Wi-Fi 8 wireless devices
- 5G NR FR1 device development and production validation
- WLAN 4x4 true MIMO (OTA) measurements
- Engineering validation (EVT), design validation (DVT) and mass production (MP) test stages
- IoT and consumer wireless device development and quality control
- Automated production line testing for telecom equipment manufacturers (OEM)
