MICRONETICS WIRELESS INTRODUCES NEW SATELLITE MODEM TESTER
Hudson, NH - Micronetics Wireless, Inc., (Nasdaq:NOIZ) announced today that it has introduced a new carrier-to-noise generator specifically for testing L-Band modems - a new class of emerging growth products which help boost data rates on satellite communication links to accommodate multi-media applications such as video and internet services.

The new Micronetics Wireless product, the CNG-1700F C/N Generator, is designed to help manufacturers more quickly evaluate the performance and integrity of L-Band modems by adding noise during the bit-error-rate (BER) test sequence. Varying amounts of noise are injected during the test procedure, and at each level, the quality of data transmission, based on the BER, is checked.

"Just as with our other noise test equipment, this new generator makes it easier and faster to test the potential impact that noise, which is really the leading contributor to communication errors, will have on the modem," says Richard Kalin, Micronetics Wireless President. "What we've done with the CNG-1700 is to take this core technology and redefine it for use in a different market."

Micronetics Wireless has already introduced a number of new test equipment products earlier this year: the dual-band CNG-100 for testing dual-mode wireless handsets; the multi-channel noise generator; and the new small-size CNG-100 designed for wireless compliance testing.

Headquartered in Hudson, NH, Micronetics Wireless engineers and manufactures specialized RF components and test equipment designed to help equipment manufacturers and service providers deliver high quality, reliable communication services.
