Modular RF Phototyping & Education Platform Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CE-12379
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Modular RF Prototyping & Education Platform (Product ID: 12379, branded BeeWave by the manufacturer), part of the Communication Equipment range under Laboratory equipment, a plug-and-play modular RF hardware ecosystem for building and teaching complete RF systems up to 6 GHz without custom PCB design.
Note: the manufacturer's own product name is spelled “Modular RF Phototyping & Education Platform” (missing the "r" in "Prototyping"); this is presented here as "Prototyping" for readability.
Quick Answer
BeeWave is a platform for teaching and prototyping RF systems with a fast, plug-and-play approach aimed at education and research. Building complex RF circuits on a custom PCB is a slow, costly process — routing RF tracks, preparing layouts and simulations, calculating bias and DC power requirements, designing power and control/clock distribution, then waiting on PCB fabrication and testing for every design iteration. BeeWave removes that bottleneck by letting students, researchers and designers build complete RF systems simply by connecting readymade modules with standard cables. BeeWave modules represent common RF circuit building blocks (filters, mixers, amplifiers, switches, attenuators, synthesizers and more), in both active and passive form, to support designing virtually any RF system, and the platform ships with teaching modules, experiments and lab exercises for classroom use. Modules are PC-controlled and compatible with MATLAB.
Key Features

Module Family Overview
| Module | Headline specification |
|---|---|
| BeeHive backplane | Hexagon-shaped backplane that holds the modules and provides power and control/data communication between them |
| Fixed gain amplifier | 10–6000 MHz, 14 dB gain, P1dB output 15 dBm, reverse isolation 25 dB |
| Variable gain amplifier | 10–6000 MHz, gain setting −19.75 to 12 dB, 0.25 dB resolution, P1dB output 15 dBm (a second, unlabeled variable-gain spec block for 50–1000 MHz also appears in the source — see note below) |
| Wideband low noise amplifier (LNA2700) | 700–2700 MHz, 16 dB small-signal gain (S21), 2 dB noise figure, 18 dBm saturated output power |
| Ceramic band pass filters (2 variants) | One variant centered 2450–5500 MHz; a second at 1900–2436 MHz; −5 dB / −1 dB pass-band insertion loss respectively (see note below on the first variant's figures) |
| Ceramic low pass filter | 150–6000 MHz cutoff range, −20 dB return loss, −3 dB pass-band insertion loss |
| Wideband double-balanced passive mixer | RF 2–14 GHz, LO 1–12 GHz, IF 10–6000 MHz, conversion loss 8 dB @ 6 GHz, for up- or down-conversion |
| Frequency synthesizer / VCO | Stepped frequency resolution from 100 KHz (3000–6000 MHz band) down to 6.25 KHz (187.5–375 MHz band); phase noise −104 dBc/Hz @ 1 GHz, 10 KHz offset |
| 10 MHz clock reference source | 4 outputs, 10 MHz, 11 dBm output power, 2.5 ppm frequency stability — supplies reference clock inputs to local oscillators |
| SPDT absorptive RF switch | 10–6000 MHz, 1.5 dB typical insertion loss, 36 dBm RF input power handling (active port); a further block of switch-type figures (24 dBm terminated-port handling, IP2/IP3 data) appears in the source without its own module label — see note below |
| Wideband variable attenuator | 10–6000 MHz, attenuation setting to −31.75 dB minimum, 0.25 dB resolution |
| Power supply module | 12 Vdc typical input (universal 90–305 VAC option), 3.3 V and 5 V outputs, up to 30 W, up to 89% efficiency, reverse-polarity and short-circuit/overload protection |
Note: several parts of the manufacturer's specification for this platform were not fully resolvable and are flagged rather than guessed. A gain-setting figure for one variable-gain-amplifier variant (50–1000 MHz) is given in the source as "−1125 to 19.5 dB", almost certainly missing a decimal point (likely −11.25 dB); a frequency-resolution figure in the synthesizer specification contains a corrupted character in place of what appears to be "1500 MHz"; the first band pass filter's stated "bandwidth" (100–1020 MHz) and "center frequency" (2450–5500 MHz) ranges do not align in the way that terminology normally implies; and the low pass filter's "cutoff frequency" is given as a range (150–6000 MHz) rather than a single value. In addition, the source material includes at least two further blocks of RF-switch/attenuator-style figures that are not attached to a named module heading. Please confirm the exact specifications for these items with our team, or request the manufacturer's full datasheet, before ordering.
Where This Is Used
BeeWave is used in university RF/microwave engineering labs, research centers, and by startups and small-to-medium businesses that lack in-house RF PCB manufacturing and testing facilities, for both classroom teaching and fast RF circuit prototyping, complementing our broader Electronics Lab Equipment and Engineering Lab Equipment ranges, alongside our more basic RF Trainer + 23 Modules and Basic Radio Frequency (RF) Lab for entry-level RF instruction.
Why Buy from Indian Lab Suppliers
Indian Lab Suppliers is an India-based laboratory equipment manufacturer and exporter supplying this Modular RF Prototyping & Education Platform alongside its broader Communication Equipment catalog, with documentation such as a Certificate of Origin available on request for institutional and export orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is BeeWave?
The manufacturer's brand name for this modular, plug-and-play RF prototyping and education platform, which lets users build complete RF circuits up to 6 GHz by connecting readymade modules with standard cables instead of designing custom PCBs.
What kinds of modules are available?
Amplifiers (fixed and variable gain, low-noise), filters (band pass and low pass), a double-balanced mixer, a frequency synthesizer/VCO, a clock reference source, an RF switch, a variable attenuator, a backplane (BeeHive) and a power supply module — see the table above.
Is this suitable for classroom teaching as well as research prototyping?
Yes. The manufacturer states it ships with teaching modules, experiments and lab exercises for classroom use, alongside its use as a fast RF prototyping tool for researchers and designers.
How is this different from your basic RF trainer kits?
BeeWave is a professional-grade modular platform covering RF functions up to 6 GHz with PC/MATLAB control; our RF Trainer + 23 Modules and Basic Radio Frequency (RF) Lab are simpler, lower-frequency (up to 500 MHz and 110 MHz respectively) educational trainers. Please discuss your syllabus or application with our team to choose the right fit.
Do you supply this equipment for institutional or export orders outside India?
Yes. Indian Lab Suppliers quotes equipment for institutional and tender buyers across export markets — see the Tenders page for documentation requirements.
