Custom MMIC announced an expanded collaboration with X-Microwave LLC, developers of a modular/drop-in simulation, prototyping and production system for solderless and reconfigurable RF/microwave circuits up to 67 GHz. The X-MWblock^TM system enables efficient and expedient microwave and mmWave circuit development and testing, using industry grade non-linear online simulation tools.

Fairview Microwave Inc. has launched a new product line made-up of 45 BMA connectors with VSWR as low as 1.2:1, and seven BMA adapters with VSWR as low as 1.15:1.

Pivotal Commware announced its initial round of funding of $17 million. Pivotal spun out from Intellectual Ventures in 2016 as the exclusive licensee of IV's metamaterials technology for terrestrial communications markets such as defense, cellular and vehicles (e.g., planes, cars, ships, trains and drones).

GenXComm closed a fully-subscribed round of seed financing, with investments from the UT Horizon Fund and other investors. GenXComm says their "robust, simultaneous, self-interference cancellation (S-SIX) technology unleashes the full potential of the spectrum used for today’s 5G mobile, Wi-Fi and cable networks by allowing channels to be stacked one next to the other with no empty spectrum between them."

At this year’s Paris Air Show, Leonardo has unveiled its new Gabbiano TS Ultra-Light (UL) surveillance radar, the result of the company’s efforts to package all the technology and modes of its successful range of Gabbiano radars into a highly-affordable product weighing less than 24 kg.

Epec Engineered Technologies announced the acquisition of high-reliability custom radio frequency (RF) product manufacturer—Putnam RF Filters, Inc.

WIN Semiconductors has developed a GaAs PIN diode MMIC process for high frequency switch and limiter applications. The 3 µm i-layer PIN diodes have near constant junction capacitance through 50 GHz, low insertion loss and excellent isolation for high frequency switch applications.

Cambridge Broadband Networks (CBNL) and TPx Communications (TPx) are winners of the ‘Infrastructure Innovation’ category at the Global Telecoms Business Innovation Awards.
