Improve 5G Testing with Reliable Cable Assemblies (Download)
As cellular network infrastructure expands to 5G technology, it will significantly affect various industries, such as telecommunication, aerospace, defense, and automotive, to name a few. Examples of applications include 5G cellular communication; aviation communication links; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) systems and processing; autonomous driving; smart city; and smart factory. Therefore, a highly reliable and resilient 5G network is crucial to our economic development and national security.
That said, testing of 5G system components faces new challenges compared to testing existing LTE/LTE-A (LTE and LTE-Advanced) communication system components. Firstly, 5G system components utilizing mmWave use higher-frequency bands than current LTE/LTE-A system components, which means 5G test system designs must overcome technical challenges associated with these bands.
