Description
The TC-5810A Acoustic Shield Box delivers reliable RF and acoustic shielding up to 6 GHz. It is ideal for testing medium to large wireless audio devices. Therefore, it supports engineering, manufacturing, and service test environments.
In addition, the enclosure provides a spacious interior and an ergonomic design. As a result, device handling becomes easier during testing. Moreover, the unit offers easy mobility, which helps improve workflow in busy test areas. Built with rugged construction, the TC-5810A supports long-term use and changing test needs.
User-Friendly Design for Faster Testing
What sets this acoustic RF shield box apart is its user-friendly design. For example, connectors and I/O plates are easily replaceable in the field. As a result, downtime is reduced and productivity increases.
Furthermore, there is no need to ship the enclosure back for modifications. This saves both time and cost. If a required filtered connector is not available from our standard selection, simply contact us. In that case, we will help identify the best solution for your application.
Flexible Options for Different Test Needs
For applications that require a smaller enclosure, additional options are available. For instance, the manually operated TC-5830AU and the pneumatic TC-5820AP Acoustic RF Shield Boxes offer similar performance in more compact formats. Therefore, you can select the enclosure that best matches your device size and test requirements.
Enhance Your Test Setup
To further improve testing efficiency, consider pairing the TC-5810A with our off-the-shelf universal grid fixture and antenna couplers. These accessories help position devices accurately and improve repeatability.
In addition, custom fixture options are available when standard solutions are not sufficient. By reducing false failures caused by equipment setup or human error, engineers can focus on real performance issues. Consequently, test throughput increases and troubleshooting time decreases.
Integrated Test Solutions
We provide fully integrated test solutions by combining enclosures, fixtures, and antenna couplers. As a result, you receive a seamless testing experience from setup to measurement. Let us help you overcome your testing challenges with a solution designed for efficiency and accuracy.
Typical RF Shielding
Typical RF Shielding
The shield effectiveness below is measured when the blank panel is mounted; other I/O interface panel results a different shielding effectiveness of the shield box.
- .1 to 2 GHz > 70 dB
- 2 to 3 GHz > 70 dB
- 3 to 6 GHz > 70 dB
***Isolation example above is based on I/O configuration as specified above. Isolation may be higher or lower based on specific I/O configuration installed.

*SPECIFICATIONS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE
- Each shielding effectiveness is measured when each I/O interface panel, which is shown above, is mounted.
- Above data was measured by Tescom, The Shielding Effectiveness might be different based on the measuring method and condition.
- This data has been measured under the condition that the cables are not connected to each filters. When the cables are connected it can affect the shielding performance.
