JRE 2218 overview
A laptop or small-form-factor computer needs room not just for its chassis, but for the cables and interfaces attached during the test. The JRE 2218 provides that working volume in a benchtop enclosure with two removable plates for the connection set.
- Interior: 13.5" H x 20.5" W x 17" D (340 x 520 x 430 mm) for laptops and SFF computers.
- Outside: 15" H x 22" W x 18.5" D (381 x 560 x 470 mm) for bench clearance.
- Isolation: −100 dB DC to 1 GHz; −95 dB to 3 GHz; −85 dB to 6 GHz.
- Two field-changeable B-size plates: 4.5" x 7" (115 x 180 mm) for a broad I/O mix.
- Two honeycomb vents provide passive airflow for powered DUTs.
- Single-handle door, dual latches, and triple hinges for repeatable loading and closure.
- RF connectors and interface filters excluded from the base enclosure and specified for each wall connection.
The 2218 is in stock at $2,240.00, with a keyed locking latch available for an additional $29. I would choose its balance when the DUT needs height and dual-plate capacity in a benchtop enclosure. Plan the two B-size plates around the complete connection set before the chamber is configured.
