In cellular base stations, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and small cells, unwanted passive intermodulation (PIM) generated by connectors, cables, and terminations can raise the noise floor, reduce SINR, and limit overall system throughput. As networks aggregate more carriers and use complex modulation schemes, the tolerance for PIM becomes tighter, and every RF connection in the path must be carefully controlled.

WithWave low-PIM solutions are designed to minimize nonlinear effects at mechanical interfaces and contact points. By combining optimized RF geometries, carefully selected materials, and robust assembly techniques, our low-PIM connectors, general-purpose cable assemblies, and low-PIM terminations provide stable, low-distortion performance over time and under real field conditions. These products help ensure that wireless infrastructure delivers its intended coverage, capacity, and quality of service.
