Key Facts
The R&S®CMW290 is the ideal test solution for the integrated wireless communications modules used in laptops, data cards, wearables and various IoT products. The R&S®CMW290 offers functions tailored to these applications within the R&S®CMW product family. The tester provides network emulation (signaling mode) as well as generator and analyzer functions for the supported cellular and non-cellular standards including GNSS and broadcast technologies.
RF tests under realistic conditions
When developing wireless devices, testing the communications interface under realistic network conditions is essential. The R&S®CMW290 emulates the base station for all major cellular technologies from LTE to GSM and wireless connectivity such as WLAN and Bluetooth.
Easy and straightforward
When focusing on precompliance RF testing in line with specifications rather than validation testing, the R&S®CMW290 supports numerous transmitter and receiver test cases for GSM, WCDMA, LTE, LTE-M and NB-IoT, which can be remotely controlled by the R&S®CMWrun sequencer software tool.
Tests under fully controlled network conditions
Thanks to deep packet inspection (DPI), IP streams from the application software are reliably analyzed for compliance and security. IP traffic, OTT behavior and battery life can be optimized for applications and mobile devices. The R&S®CMW290 offers an efficient test environment for executing complex IP application tests for various technologies.
Test sequences by remote control
The R&S®CMW290 tester can be used to perform, document and evaluate complex user experience tests under simulated, yet realistic conditions. An R&S®CMW290 tester combined with the R&S®CMWrun automation tool provides enormous test bandwidth unmatched on the market.
Comprehensive network emulation
Bluetooth and WLAN are indispensable in modern communications. Modern smartphones will continue to transmit most of their data using the two technologies. The R&S®CMW290 supports versatile Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy tests, including all defined Bluetooth SIG RF signaling tests. The R&S®CMW290 supports signaling tests for WLAN starting from IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n up to 11ac and 11ax
