What Maury Microwave does

Maury Microwave, founded in 1957 and headquartered in Ontario, California, designs and manufactures precision RF, microwave, and millimeter-wave test, calibration, and device-characterization equipment. Its product portfolio spans amplifiers (MPA Series), analyzers (audio, modulation, phase noise, and power measurement), VNA calibration kits and verification kits, impedance tuners (active load pull, automated, cryogenic, manual, and stub tuners), power meters and USB sensors, noise generators and amplified noise modules, signal generators and multi-channel synthesizers, channel emulators, and software platforms including the Insight series, InsightPro, MMW-STUDIO, and SATGEN. Core technologies include Real-Time Power Processing (delivering 100,000 measurements per second), active load pull systems, vector-receiver load pull, and NIST-traceable calibration, enabling characterization of devices from RF through sub-terahertz frequencies.

The company serves engineers and program managers in aerospace and defense, semiconductor, wireless communication, and university research, with named use cases spanning satellite tracking, satcom amplifier testing, cellular base station validation, TWT amplifier calibration, Wi-Fi MIMO compliance, fiber-laser noise mitigation, and chipset qualification. Customer logos include a global defense satellite-tracking program, a world-leading satcom amplifier provider, a large cellular base station radio manufacturer, a TWT amplifier manufacturer for avionics radar, MiCOM Labs, a government satellite data services agency, a high-power specialty fiber-optic laser manufacturer, and a global chip developer's test division. The customer base is enterprise-skewed with quote-based pricing.

Maury is a private, PE-backed company under Artemis Capital Partners and operates a multi-brand architecture following acquisitions of Anteverta (2015), dBmCorp (October 2021), Wireless Telecom Group including Boonton, Holzworth, and Noisecom (August 2023), and mmW/sub-THz Load Pull IP from Vertigo Technologies (March 2025). Revenue is generated through hardware sales, software licenses, calibration and repair services, and rental/lease programs, and distributed via direct enterprise field sales, inside sales, and an e-commerce storefront. Regional offices in Parsippany, NJ (US) and Eindhoven, Netherlands (Europe) support global coverage. The company pursues a roll-up strategy to consolidate RF/microwave/niche T&M brands and integrates with partners including Keysight Technologies, Rohde & Schwarz, Cadence Design Systems, FormFactor, Modelithics, and Copper Mountain.
