Consutlix’s award-winning CellWizard™ CW Test Transmitters are setting the standard for next-generation transmitters for indoor and outdoor applications. The wide-band frequency operation allows a single device to be used for all bands and technologies from 150 MHz to 4.2 GHz, eliminating the need to purchase and carry multiple transmitters to the site.

The superior RF Performance and output level accuracy, +20dBm standalone output power and +47 dBm with optional external power amplifiers, make it the ideal solution for indoor and outdoor propagation model tuning and DAS injection tests.

CellWizard™ Multi-port models allow utilizing one transmitter to generate up to 4 CW signals simultaneously on the device’s 4 ports. Each port operates totally independent from the other three ports and provides multi-band operation across the full frequency range of the transmitter.

What Our Clients Say

FAQs


What is a CW test transmitter?

A CW (Continuous Wave) test transmitter is a portable device used in radio frequency testing to generate a continuous signal without modulation. It serves various purposes, including path loss measurements, RF site survey, signal strength testing, receiver alignment, and propagation model calibration

How does a CW test transmitter work?

A CW test transmitter typically generates a continuous sine wave (carrier) signal at a specific frequency. This signal is transmitted through an antenna and received by a CW Receiver or a scanner.

How do I choose the right CW test transmitter for my application?

When selecting a CW test transmitter, consider factors such as frequency range, output power, number of ports (parallel signals), modulation capabilities, and portability. Evaluate your specific testing requirements and choose a transmitter that meets your needs.

What are the benefits of using a CW test transmitter in RF testing?

CW test transmitters offer stable and continuous signals without carrying bulk equipment, making them ideal for field measurements.

Can a CW test transmitter be used for signal modulation testing?

No, CW test transmitters generate continuous wave signals without modulation. They are primarily used for basic RF testing tasks such as signal strength measurements and path loss evaluation. For modulation testing, the device is called a “test transmitter” which requires a scanner or a test phone on the other side. For modulated test transmitters we recommend our ILLUMINATOR Multi-role Test Transmitter | Up to 6 GHz."

Are there portable CW test transmitters available for field testing applications?

Yes, there are portable CW test transmitters designed specifically for field testing applications.
These compact and lightweight devices offer mobility and ease of use in various field environments. They are often battery-powered and equipped with user-friendly controls for on-the-go testing.

Can a CW test transmitter be also used for antenna testing and tuning?

Yes, CW test transmitters can be used for antenna testing and tuning. By transmitting a continuous wave signal, they allow engineers to assess antenna performance, measure radiation patterns, and optimize antenna configurations for maximum efficiency and coverage.

What is the difference between a CW test transmitter and a swept-frequency signal generator?

A CW test transmitter generates a continuous wave signal without modulation, whereas a swept-frequency signal generator produces a signal that varies in frequency over a specified range. While CW test transmitters are suitable for basic RF testing tasks, swept-frequency signal generators are often used for frequency response measurements and frequency sweep analysis.

Are there CW test transmitters available with adjustable output power levels for specific testing requirements?

Yes, Consultix CW test transmitters offer adjustable output power levels to accommodate specific testing requirements. Users can adjust the output power to match the sensitivity range of the equipment under test (EUT) or to simulate various signal strength conditions in RF testing applications.
