RTF Series
PIM & RETURN LOSS MEASUREMENT
Range To Fault (RTF) is an exciting new technology from Kaelus that enables operators to accurately measure the location of PIM and Return Loss faults in their RF infrastructure. Reflection data together with PIM data provides an unmatched level of clarity for identifying the location of faults in the RF path. The RTF system consists of an RTF Module, interconnecting cables and a “RTF Enabled” iPA, iQA or iBA series PIM test instrument. Customers can purchase a new “RTF Enabled” PIM test analyzer from Kaelus or upgrade their existing A or B-series iQA test equipment to support RTF measurements. Please contact your local Kaelus representative for additional information.
