The IMT and iQA family of analyzers provide an effective tool for performing these measurements. The IMT family performs a simple to use Go/No-Go test that can be used to identify whether the construction quality is a potential problem source. For more extensive diagnostic testing, the iQA family of instruments allows for varying the test parameters, such as frequency, for a more precise analysis of the complete infrastructure

The IMT and iQA family of analyzers provide an effective tool for performing these measurements. The IMT family performs a simple to use Go/No-Go test that can be used to identify whether the construction quality is a potential problem source. For more extensive diagnostic testing, the iQA family of instruments allows for varying the test parameters, such as frequency, for a more precise analysis of the complete infrastructure.

The Infrastructure Quality Analyzers are a product of Triasx Pty Ltd (Australia) and were developed to support the overlay of technologies by Telstra in Australia. Originally identified as a necessary tool to solve interconnect problems on in-building installations, it has expanded to be a required test prior to initial commissioning of all basestations, indoor and outdoor, and each time an RF interconnection is disconnected and then reconnected at an operational site.

These test instruments combined with the knowledge and experience of both Summitek and Triasx in the manufacture and analysis of low PIM devices assures our customers the highest possible standard in measurement instruments and support in these applications.

IMT Series

The IMT series provides a simple, compact and portable instrument for evaluating RF infrastructure quality. The test set emulates a base station radio by providing two 20 Watt output signals at fixed frequencies and measures the Reverse/Reflected IM signal level to determine whether the infrastructure under test is of high construction quality that will not degrade network performance. Designed to be used to test through all "full band " devices it may not always be possible to test from top to bottom through any part band limited devices such as filters and tower mounted amplifiers (TMA's). Hard copy reports on the status of testing performed are available.

iQA Series

The iQA series is designed for those applications where greater operator control is desired or required to better analyze and understand cellular base station RF infrastructure quality and performance. These systems provide an interactive operator interface via a touch screen LCD display. As with the IMT series analyzers, the iQA analyzers perform an industry standard two tone PIM measurement at 20 Watts per carrier. The operator can select the frequency and power level of the test tones and measure reflected, IM3, IM5, and IM7 results. The iQA test sets are completely portable and have the ability to provide hard copy reports.
