Technical Overview

The STE5100M is engineered to provide a highly controlled RF environment by significantly attenuating radio frequency signals entering and leaving the enclosure. Typical shielding performance exceeds 90 dB at 2.4 GHz and 85 dB at 5.8 GHz, helping to eliminate external interference and improve testing accuracy.

A key advantage of the STE5100M is its modular and configurable architecture. Customers can specify a wide range of connectivity options including USB, Ethernet, fibre optic, serial, audio, video and RF connectors. Filtered AC and DC power interfaces are also available, ensuring devices under test remain fully operational while maintaining enclosure shielding integrity.

The enclosure incorporates an RF-tight illuminated viewing window, allowing operators to monitor device status and displays without opening the chamber. Combined with the absorbent RF foam liner and precision-engineered construction, the STE5100M provides a dependable platform for demanding RF testing and validation projects.
