Wireless communication has become an integral part of modern life. The main advantages of wireless communication versus wired devices are location-independence, lower costs and ease of installation. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and environmental conditions such as shocks, vibrations and extreme temperatures can seriously disrupt the function and safety of wireless devices.
Making robust components and systems is becoming increasingly difficult for manufacturers and their suppliers. Our experts can support you – during the development phase if required – with comprehensive consulting and accredited testing and certification services, ensuring your products meet the industry’s most demanding requirements.
We provide these services in accordance with numerous product, manufacturer, and international standards and directives.
Customers can depend on our skills and experience in resolving EMI issues during their product development and upgrading processes.
Our in-house certification body can also carry out product approvals.
