Product overview

The R&S®CMPHEAD50 is the next generation broadband mmWave remote radio head, a high-performance millimeterwave converter designed for non-signaling applications. It is the only remote radio head on the market that covers bidirectional testing of five mmWave bands with a single hardware combination, and it adds EVM booster ports. Used with the CMP200 radio communication tester, it extends test coverage into frequency range 2 (FR2 / FR2-1). A wider dynamic range, full frequency coverage and outstanding EVM performance keep measurement accuracy high for next-generation FR2 RF designs, from early development through to final certification and regulatory compliance testing.

Key features

  • Full frequency range from 21.84 GHz to 50.2 GHz: the only remote radio head on the market that covers every 3GPP FR2-1 band and at the same time offers separate external LO inputs for TX and RX
  • Wide dynamic range with an extra sensitive RX port: the standard TX/RX ports already deliver excellent EVM performance, and the added low-noise RX port raises sensitivity to a new level for very low power measurements
  • Dual LO architecture with external LO ports: separate local oscillators for the downlink and uplink paths give the best RF signal quality in both the TX and the RX direction
  • External LO ports support the EVM booster, which improves EVM performance further for leading-edge RF measurements
  • Integrated mmWave RF switch matrix simplifies the system setup and supports switching between bands
  • One hardware combination covers bidirectional testing of five mmWave bands, cutting test cost and system complexity

Typical applications

  • Non-signaling RF testing of 5G NR FR2 / FR2-1 user equipment (UE)
  • Early development validation of next-generation mmWave RF designs
  • Final certification and regulatory compliance testing
  • High dynamic range millimeterwave receive sensitivity measurements
  • Verification of 5G millimeterwave multi-band switching performance
