RF Industries, Ltd, a manufacturer and marketer of interconnect products and systems, has announced the expansion of its small cell concealment solutions portfolio to include TruField, a first of its kind, patent-protected technology developed in partnership with Saint-Gobain, RF Industries' exclusive strategic partner. TruField utilizes a proprietary outer shell material that is band agnostic and achieves true RF transparency with less than 0.2 dB of loss at any angle of incidence up to 60° across all frequencies.
TruField’s™ unique, lightweight fabric is made of a self-cleaning, hydrophobic material that repels water, mold, and mildew which keeps the shroud virtually maintenance free. This means lower overall costs.
"With the massive growth of 5G networks, we couldn't be more excited to partner and collaborate with Saint-Gobain to bring TruField technology to wireless carriers and neural host providers," said Robert Dawson, President and CEO of RF Industries. "TruField has gone through extensive independent lab and wireless carrier testing and will drive a more powerful concealment solutions product roadmap that we can sell to our growing customer base to meet the demands of 5G."
"TruField's superior RF and mmWave transparency is truly revolutionary and can be configured to fit any small cell or current mmWave radio on the market. Its lightweight, flexible material unzips to provide 360° access for easy installation, upgrades, and removal," said Christophe Massenet, Vice President of Technology and Engineering at RF Industries. "Unlike traditional shrouds, its unique material can easily adapt to future 4G and 5G configurations due to the full RF transparency throughout the entire shroud. TruField's unique durable construction is also climate-resilient, hydrophobic, self-cleaning and low maintenance."
