JRE 2525 RF Shielded Test Enclosure

A large but still benchtop-sized RF shielded test enclosure — ideal for large RF devices, with a roomy cube interior that's light enough to ship worldwide by UPS, no freight pallet required.

• Roomy 18 x 23.5 x 23.5 inches inside (460 x 600 x 600 mm) in a 25" x 25" cube footprint
• Excellent RF shielding isolation: −100 dB DC to 1 GHz, −95 dB to 3 GHz, −85 dB to 6 GHz
• Light weight — only 52 lbs! Compare to similar products that weigh over 100 lbs
• Easy, low-cost UPS shipping worldwide — no pallets required, saves $1,000s
• Two removable C-size I/O plates for a wide selection of I/O options, reconfigurable as your test needs change
• Triple hinges keep the door sealed RF-tight
• Two 'honeycomb' style vents standard — optional fans available
• Dual latches ensure tight RF shielding
• Keyed locking latch available (add $29)
• Rugged welded aluminum construction, made in the USA on our own fabrication line
• Optional MW upgrade extends isolation to 28 GHz for 5G FR2, UWB, and Wi-Fi 6E/7 work
• Please note: test chambers do not include any RF connectors or interface filters. Any connection to a device inside the chamber must be suitably filtered to maintain shielding isolation. See the filtered interface and connector options below.

Large Capacity, Without the Freight Bill

Originally designed for testing rack-mounted RF sensing equipment, the roomy JRE 2525 is ideal for large wireless devices such as rack-mount mesh network APs, cellular/LTE/4G base stations, wireless laptops, test fixtures for large RF modules, and other large RF gear. Here's the part that sets it apart from other chambers this size: at roughly 52 lbs it ships by UPS anywhere in the world with no pallet — saving you the hundreds or thousands of dollars in freight that a 100-plus-pound chamber would cost to crate and ship. For over-the-air work, pair it with our test antennas — the ANT-82 covers cellular/PCS bands for base stations, while the ANT-245 handles 2.4 and 5–6 GHz for WiFi and mesh. If you need even more room, the JRE 2830 steps up to a larger interior with three I/O plates.

Featuring rugged welded aluminum construction, you can be assured of its tight RF shielding effectiveness. Long-life door gasket material along with our double-edge contact engagement provides solid RF shielding and smooth, trouble-free operation over the life of the chamber. The extra-wide opening makes placement of internal devices easy. Inside, LS-30 RF absorbing foam tames reflections and hot-spots so your measurements stay clean and repeatable.

The Removable I/O Plate — Your Chamber Never Becomes Obsolete

Every JRE chamber uses a removable, CNC-machined I/O plate — a design JRE engineers originated over forty years ago. The two C-size plates recess into the chamber wall and do not intrude into your test volume. Because they swap out in the field with a few screws, one 2525 can be reconfigured for many different test setups over its life. Our wide selection of filtered I/O interfaces — USB, Ethernet, power, HDMI and more — lets almost any device be connected inside while keeping the RF environment sealed up tight. Browse the C-size populated I/O plates for the most common pre-built configurations.

Not sure what connections you need? The Configuration Worksheet is a quick way to organize your interface and connector needs before you order. Tell us exactly what RF connectors and filtered interfaces you require and we will build and final-test your chamber in the exact configuration you will be using.
