Description
Designed for I/O-intensive tests of tall devices — a roomy upright enclosure with two full I/O plates, optionally rack-mountable in a standard 19" rack.
- Roomy 22.5 x 15.5 x 18.5 inches inside (570 x 390 x 470 mm) in a 17" wide x 20" deep upright package
- Excellent RF shielding isolation: −100 dB DC to 1 GHz, −95 dB to 3 GHz, −85 dB to 6 GHz
- Easily holds tall devices — 22.5" of interior height
- Huge amount of I/O using two removable C-size I/O plates — reconfigurable as your test needs change
- Available with rack-mounting side rails to fit any standard 19" rack — add $119.00
- JRE-exclusive single-handle door operation with 3-point engagement
- Keyed locking latch available as an option (add $29)
- JRE-exclusive 'honeycomb' vents in the rear and door — optional fans available
- Rugged welded aluminum construction, made in the USA on our own fabrication line
- Optional MW upgrade extends isolation to 28 GHz for 5G FR2, UWB, and Wi-Fi 6E/7 work
- Please note: test chambers do not include any RF connectors or interface filters. Any connection to a device inside the chamber must be suitably filtered to maintain shielding isolation. See the filtered interface and connector options below.
Tall Devices, Plenty of I/O
Do you have tall devices to test, especially ones needing plenty of I/O? The JRE 1720 is the answer. With 22.5" of interior height and two large C-size I/O plates, it swallows upright equipment — base stations, racked gear stood on end, tall DUTs — while still giving you room for the connectors, filters, and interfaces those devices need. Add the optional rack-mounting side rails and it drops right into a standard 19" rack. If you don't need the full height, the JRE 1714 offers the same two C-size plates in a lower-profile rack unit.
Like its other brothers in the JRE Test line, it features rugged welded aluminum construction with superb RF shielding effectiveness. Long-life door gasket material along with our double-edge contact engagement provides solid RF shielding and smooth, trouble-free operation over the life of the chamber. A JRE exclusive, our door latch mechanism allows easy single-handle door operation, plus an integral key lock secures the test devices inside. Ventilation is standard with our JRE-exclusive honeycomb-style vents in the enclosure rear and door, and fans may be added optionally. Inside, LS-30 RF absorbing foam tames reflections and hot-spots so your measurements stay clean and repeatable.
The Removable I/O Plate — Your Chamber Never Becomes Obsolete
Every JRE chamber uses a removable, CNC-machined I/O plate — a design JRE engineers originated over forty years ago. The two C-size plates recess into the chamber wall and do not intrude into your test volume. Because they swap out in the field with a few screws, one 1720 can be reconfigured for many different test setups over its life. Our wide selection of filtered I/O interfaces — USB, Ethernet, power, HDMI and more — lets almost any device be connected inside while keeping the RF environment sealed up tight. Browse the C-size populated I/O plates for the most common pre-built configurations.
Not sure what connections you need? The Configuration Worksheet is a quick way to organize your interface and connector needs before you order. Tell us exactly what RF connectors and filtered interfaces you require and we will build and final-test your chamber in the exact configuration you will be using.

JRE 1720 Filtered Interface and Connector I/O Options
Configuring your JRE RF Test Chamber is simple, fast and easy. Choose from these ready-to-go I/O plates with the most common filtered interfaces and connectors and your test chamber can be shipped in just a few days - or have a custom design in about a week, with whatever connectors and filtered interfaces you desire. To help organize your thoughts on what interfaces and connectors you may need, here is a link to a handy 'Configuration Worksheet'.
Want a different set of connectors or filtered interfaces? Contact JRE with your requirements and a custom I/O plate will be designed expressly for your test chamber. This plate will then be populated with the selected interfaces, mounted on the test chamber, final tested and then shipped to you. Other options such as fans, vents. internal AC power strips, fiber optic connectors can all be accommodated. JRE’s extensive inventory allows us to ship your custom configured test chamber in as little as one week!
