Best External frontend for R&S®FE44S Exporters, Product

With the R&S®FE44S external frontend, Rohde & Schwartz signal and spectrum analyzers and signal generators can operate at frequencies up to 44 GHz. In an OTA setting, the R&S®FE44S reduces cable losses, increases sensitivity, and delivers more power to the antenna by enabling signal upconversion and downconversion directly at the device under test (DUT).The R&S®FE44S further minimizes the number of antennas in over-the-air testing by utilizing a single RF connector.

A measurement solution near the DUT for signal production and analysis with a bandwidth up to 1 GHz and exceptional RF performance, the R&S®FE44S is a cutting-edge product that addresses 5G frequency ranges from 24 GHz to 44 GHz.
The R&S®FE44S is fully controlled by a base instrument, such as R&S®FSV3000/R&S®FSVA3000 signal and spectrum analyzers and R&S®SMM100A/R&S®SMW200A vector signal generators. Frequency extensions for measuring setups that are completely transparent are advantageous to users.
Excellent signal quality is provided for both production and analysis by the integrated low phase noise frequency generation.
