Description

TC-5830APU Pneumatic Shield Box Key Benefits

  • High durability and reliable RF shielding up to 12GHz
  • Specifically Designed for Audio testing of wireless audio devices
  • Effective radiation and audio testing environment with RF and Acoustic Absorber lined walls
  • Specifically designed for various shapes wireless audio devices
  • Long Life and Ease of Maintenance
  • Features Pneumatic operation and control of lid and fixtures inside the box
  • Remote control by RS-232C for high volume automation testing
  • EMI filters on all data ports and power lines

The New TESCOM TC-5830APU Pneumatic Shield Box is the Pneumatic version of the TC-5830AU. The TC-5830APU Pneumatic Shield Box version provides excellent reliable RF Shielding up to 12GHz as well as high level of audio isolation for your acoustic testing of your audio devices.  The pneumatic version, TC-5830APU shares the same high quality features of the TC-5830AU but with the pneumatics feature. Now  provides improved shielding for RF and Audio to meet the higher frequency testing demands of wireless audio technology devices.  This Faraday cage is designed for OTA testing as all the interior walls are lined with highly absorbent RF and Acoustic Absorber along with a layer of ferrite absorber to minimize any reflections when performing RF Over-the-Air (OTA) or audio testing.   Add one of our grid fixtures and antenna couplers to make the TC-5830APU RF Shield Box an ideal OTA test solution for any wireless  audio DUT(Device-Under-Test).

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.

  • 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.
