About
The WiRan S-Band Test Cap is a precision-engineered accessory designed to enable full-duplex testing of S-band antennas mounted directly on satellite structures. It operates within the 2025–2290 MHz frequency range, providing a controlled testing environment that replicates real communication conditions without requiring long-distance setups. Developed with compatibility in mind, the Test Cap integrates seamlessly with WiRan’s S-band antennas and related RF systems. It allows engineers to perform accurate signal integrity measurements, link performance verification, and functional tests that simulate large separation distances between the satellite’s onboard antenna and the ground-based receiver. Each Test Cap can be customized or adapted to specific installation requirements, ensuring optimal fit and performance across various satellite configurations. Installation details and mechanical adaptations can be carried out in close consultation with the customer to meet mission-specific needs. Engineering Models are available on request with an approximate lead time of 4-6 weeks.
