Description
The STE2800 RF Shielded Test Enclosure provides a controlled RF environment for accurate wireless device testing. Engineers use this enclosure to block outside interference and improve test consistency during development, validation, and production.
This RF shielded test enclosure supports common wireless technologies, including Bluetooth, WLAN, and Cellular. By reducing unwanted RF signals, it helps teams achieve repeatable results and reliable measurements in both lab and manufacturing settings.
Designed for OTA and Radiated Testing
Engineers commonly use the STE2800 RF Shielded Test Enclosure for over-the-air (OTA) testing. OTA testing evaluates the full device, including the antenna and enclosure effects. This method gives a more realistic view of real-world wireless performance than conducted testing.
The enclosure allows engineers to test finished products without removing or modifying antennas. As a result, teams can validate true device behavior before release.
Flexible Configuration and Integration
The STE2800 supports flexible test setups. Engineers can add antenna couplers, filtered connectors, and custom interfaces to match specific test needs. The enclosure also supports fixture mounting, which helps secure devices during testing.
These options make it easier to adapt the enclosure for different products and test stages. Teams can move quickly between development, validation, and production workflows.
Improved Repeatability in Production Environments
In production and quality testing, the STE2800 RF Shielded Test Enclosure helps reduce test variation. It minimizes outside RF noise and creates stable test conditions. This stability improves throughput and reduces false failures.
Manufacturers often pair the enclosure with RF shield boxes and OTA testing solutions to build scalable test systems.
Built to Support Industry Standards
Wireless devices must meet industry requirements for performance and reliability. Standards organizations such as IEEE and 3GPP define these expectations. Shielded enclosures like the STE2800 help teams test devices under controlled conditions that align with these standards.
A Practical Solution for Wireless Validation
With strong RF isolation, flexible options, and simple integration, the STE2800 RF Shielded Test Enclosure offers a dependable solution for wireless and OTA testing across the full product lifecycle.
