Molex has acquired Motorola’s Denmark-based antenna/EMC measurement laboratory.
Situated in Aalborg, the lab carries out EMC measurements with anechoic chambers, an EMC chamber and a SAR system.
The move indicates an investment by the connector company in its RF research for wireless antenna products.
“This purchase enhances our antenna technology efforts and confirms our commitment to invest in technologies to support our customers,” said Ellen Maassen, antenna business unit director at Molex.
Molex, which already sells antennas, said it will hire engineers and technicians to operate the chambers and test equipment for its research projects.
