Future Trends of Low PIM Technology – 2026 and Beyond
Aug , 18 2026
Why Low PIM Matters More Than Ever If you've ever designed or maintained an RF system, you've likely run into this problem: downlink signal is strong — users see full bars — but uplink is dead. Calls drop. Throughput tanks. The base station keeps adjusting parameters to no effect. That's Passive Intermodulation (PIM) at work. In the past, PIM was treated as a "nice‑to‑fix" optimization item. By 20...

DC-6GHz 20W NEX10 RF Load – MNDL-20-6-Nex10M for DAS Termination
Sep , 08 2026
Anyone working on in‑building DAS probably has a handful of N‑type loads in their toolkit. Screw them on for field testing, port termination, or troubleshooting. But things have changed over the last few years – antenna panels are getting denser, and N‑type connectors are simply too bulky. NEX10 is showing up on more and more equipment. Maniron's MNDL‑20‑6‑Nex10M – DC‑6GHz, 20W, NEX10 male, VSWR ≤...

Three 10dB Couplers Compared: Insertion Loss and PIM Test Results – Cavity vs Microstrip vs Stripline
Sep , 29 2026
In DAS indoor distribution systems and RF link designs, the 10dB directional coupler is one of the most frequently used passive components. The two specifications engineers care about most are insertion loss and passive intermodulation (PIM) — the former directly eats into the link budget, the latter determines whether the uplink noise floor can be kept down. There are three main manufacturing tec...
