Aeroflex / Weinschel offers smart solutions to challenging test, simulation and RF distribution requirements by offering subsystem products that are either off-the-shelf or designed to customer specifications. Our subsystems feature

• Standard communication interfaces
  (IEEE-488, RS-232, Ethernet)
  with proprietary SmartStep® Technology;

• Flexible, high-density mechanical layout & packaging;

• 50 & 75 configurations.

Our subsystems are employed  in telecommunications, radar and CNI, satellite and ground communication systems, base station and mobile unit software conformance verification, signal analysis, cable modem and VoIP testing, production test systems and precision microwave related test instruments.

1. Attenuation Matrices and Multi-Channel Subsystems - 2x6,3x6, 4x6, 6x6, 4x4, 4x8 and 8x8 configurations for typical UMTS, CDMA 2000, & GSM bands. Configurations can cover dc to 40 GHz.
