Precision cables for testing millimetre-wave systems for 5G mobile research are available from China-based laboratory device company Nanjing Arance Electronics through its UK representative, Aspen Electronics.
The low-loss precision test cables are designed for good VSWR and phase/flexure stability up to 67GHz. They are suitable to be used in 5G research labs with high frequency microwave vector network analysers.
Research work in the UK and across Europe into the next generation mobile phone standard is now focusing on the use of millimetre wave radio transmission at very high 30-300GHz frequencies.
If implemented, this will represent the biggest technology change for a mobile generation since the switch from analogue to digital GSM technology more than a decade ago.
For researchers in the UK, France and Germany everything is up for grabs. The standards work for the radio access network (RAN) has yet to begin.
The first discussions on potential global standards will start next month at a 3GPP standards meeting in Arizona.
The 67GHz cables, according to the supplier, have been designed for test equipment applications where test ports will be continually mated and re-mated allowing a high number of mating cycles without any damage to the equipment device interface.
“The reinforced sheath test cables exhibit torque and crush resistance with the outer jacket having a multilayer armour and a compression resistance greater than 920kgf/cm,” said Aspen.
They are available as sets containing two cables with 60 cm standard length each and can be operated at 0℃ to +40℃.
