Description

TC-5920A RF Shield Box Key Benefits

  • High Reliable RF shielding
  • Ergonomically Designed – Easy Opening/Closing of Door
  • EMI filters on all Data and DC lines
  • Easily customizable and field replaceable to meet various test needs
  • Shock absorber on lid

Tescom TC5920A RF Shield Box easily fits on a desktop or benchtop taking up minimal space but large enough for small to medium size devices.  It is ergonomically designed for repetitive opening and closing operations, as well as ease of maintenance. The TC5920A RF Shield Box rear I/O plate is custom configurable and field replaceable as your testing requirements change.  So there is no downtime sending your RF Shield Box back to make I/O plate changes. We all know time is critical in testing to get your products from design to production then to the market, so whatever time you can save gives you an advantage.

Pair the RF Faraday Cage with one of our Antenna Couplers installed in a Universal Grid Test Fixture to perform your OTA(Over-the-Air) testing giving you reliable repeatable test results.

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.
  • 100 to 2000 MHz > 60 dB
  • 2000 to 3000 MHz > 60 dB
  • 3000 to 6000 MHz > 55 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.
