The CATR Anechoic Chamber MA8172A by Anritsu is a space-efficient OTA test chamber specifically engineered for millimeter-wave (mmWave) device development and conformance testing. Utilizing the Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) method recommended by 3GPP, it enables reliable and repeatable evaluation of 5G New Radio (NR) performance.

The chamber supports Alignment Options 1, 2, and 3, giving developers flexibility in test setups. In addition, it accommodates FR2 temperature testing, allowing comprehensive assessments of device behavior under varying thermal conditions.

Built for practicality, the MA8172A is disassemblable into three parts, making transportation easy. Its quick installation time—under five days—ensures a rapid transition from delivery to full operational testing, making it ideal for R&D centers and conformance labs needing accelerated deployment.

  1. 3GPP-Compliant CATR Testing: Supports standardized 5G NR OTA test methodology.

  2. Supports FR2 Temperature Testing: Enables evaluation under temperature variations.

  3. Alignment Option 1/2/3 Compatibility: Flexibly supports multiple alignment configurations.

  4. Disassemblable and Portable: Easily transported in three parts for on-site assembly.

  5. Quick Setup Time: Installation and setup completed in less than 5 days.

  6. Ideal for mmWave Conformance Testing: Tailored for 5G NR chipsets, devices, and UE.
