Rohde and Schwarz CMW100A Communications Manufacturing Test Set

The Rohde & Schwarz CMW100A is a high-performance communications manufacturing test set engineered for production-line validation of wireless devices and modules across multiple cellular and non-cellular standards. Operating continuously to 6 GHz with up to 160 MHz RF bandwidth, the instrument delivers eight bidirectional, full-duplex RF ports enabling simultaneous parallel testing of up to eight devices. Its open architecture supports LTE, 5G NR, WLAN, Bluetooth® (versions up to 5, including Classic and LE), and IoT technologies. The CMW100A optimizes cost-effective calibration and device verification in non-signaling analyzer/generator mode, scaling across multiple units for expanded port capacity at production stations.
