RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for MECA low PIM, high-performance adapters. With right angle, bulkhead, in-series and between-series options, RFMW supports many distributed antenna system (DAS) interconnect requirements. PIM (Passive Intermodulation) is the non-linear mixing of two or more frequencies in a passive (or linear) device creating poor system performance. MECA’s Low PIM (-165dBc typ.) adapters offer rugged construction and excellent performance for in-building or tower top systems. For example, the ANF-DM-M01 is a N-Female to 7/16 DIN Male adapter with a maximum VSWR of 1.25:1 and supports systems up to 8GHz. ANF-DM-M01 adapters are rated for operation…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the Qorvo QPF4518, 5.150 to 5.925GHz, WiFi Front End Module (FEM). Optimized for output power and EVM performance the FEM incorporates 32dB of transmit path gain and 16dB of receive path gain while providing up to 25dBm of 11n, MCS0 spectral mask compliant output power. Internal filtering rejects unwanted 2.4GHz signals by 25dB and Rx path pinouts allow for additional filtering. Targeted to applications for retail and service provider products, the QPF4518 is listed on Qualcomm’s QCA9888 reference design. Offered in a 5x3mm QFN package, this FEM is available from stock at…
