Mini-Circuits’ ZTMN series mesh network emulators are multi-port test systems with independently variable attenuation on each internal path. This concept allows simulation of a “real-world” mesh communication network within the confined space of a production or test environment. Path loss can be varied independently between any pair of devices on the network without affecting any other combination of devices, allowing simulation of a complex range of test cases.

ZTMN-0495AS is a 4-port mesh covering the 350 MHz to 6 GHz bands, with 0 to 95 dB attenuation range on each of the internal paths. The model is housed in a compact 19-inch rack chassis with all RF connectors on the front panel. The ZTMN series also supports custom mesh network combinations, with port counts, attenuation and frequency ranges configured according to your needs.

The system can be controlled via USB or Ethernet (supporting SSH, HTTP & Telnet protocols). Full software support is provided, including our user-friendly GUI application for Windows, flexible API, and programming instructions for Windows and Linux environments.
