Product overview
The R&S®CMW270 is the non-cellular technology expert, built to test devices with integrated WLAN and Bluetooth communications: laptops, game consoles, data cards, wireless headsets and IoT products. It provides network emulation (signaling mode) for WLAN and Bluetooth®, and signal generation and analysis for WLAN, Bluetooth®, GNSS and broadcast technology standards. As a member of the R&S®CMW500 production test product family, the CMW270 uses a dual tester concept that runs multiple-standard RF measurements on WLAN SISO/MIMO and Bluetooth at the same time and adds IP application testing through deep packet inspection (DPI), which makes it well suited to development, certification and production test.
Key features
- Bluetooth RF tester qualified by Bluetooth SIG, with full coverage of the RF prequalification test cases for Bluetooth LE (Low Energy), Basic Rate (BR) and Enhanced Data Rate (EDR)
- WLAN 11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax SISO and MIMO signaling test with up to 160 MHz bandwidth
- Dual tester concept runs multiple-standard RF measurements on Bluetooth and WLAN signaling at the same time
- General purpose ARB generator for Bluetooth, WLAN, GNSS and various broadcast technologies
- Built-in server for WLAN application testing plus the customizable R&S®CMWrun test sequencer for automated test flows
- Deep packet inspection (DPI) analyses the compliance and security of an application's IP streams and helps optimize battery life
- Conducted and over-the-air (OTA) Bluetooth connection emulation covering both the central and the peripheral role
Typical applications
- Development validation and RF prequalification testing of Bluetooth and WLAN devices such as laptops, IoT devices and wireless headsets
- Signaling tests of WLAN IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) access points and stations under realistic network conditions
- Full RF characterization and direct test mode (DTM) testing of Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) and BR/EDR devices
- IP application testing and battery life optimization, using DPI to analyse OTT behaviour and traffic quality
- Production line testing of the wireless connectivity in automotive infotainment systems
- Wireless coexistence testing of IoT devices and automated user experience (UX) test sequences
