Boonton Indonesia - PIM Testers
The PIM 21 is a microprocessor
controlled, portable test set allowing detection of distortion
components and assemblies in radio base station, in-building DAS
installations and other systems transmitting radio frequencies.
Non-linearity in radio frequency
assemblies causes Intermodulation Distortion (IM). The purpose of the
PIM 21 test set is to specifically test for this distortion in passive
signal paths, known as Passive Intermodulation Distortion or PIM.
Components in coaxial feeder assemblies such as connectors, jumper
cables, splitters, hybrids, filters, DC blocks and antennas can cause
PIM problems if they are not manufactured appropriately or not assembled
properly.
