Microwave testers

Anritsu has introduced the S810C and S820C microwave Site Master models for installing, verifying, troubleshooting and repairing microwave communication systems operating up to 20 GHz.

The S810C covering 3.3-10 GHz and S820C covering 3.3-20 GHz, give microwave site installers, point-to-point operators, point-to-multi-point operators, radio manufacturers, mobile phone operators, utility companies, and private/public network operators unprecedented performance when analysing microwave transmission line and antenna systems.

Using vector error correction, the devices provide improved measurement quality and convenience compared with traditional scalar techniques.

The analysers also have a high immunity to live site RF interference that allows users to conduct accurate measurements of active sites, including co-location sites. Both devices deliver return loss/SWR and fault location measurements. The instruments have a return loss range of 0 to 54 dB with 0.01 dB resolution and 517 data point display resolution for long-range problems.

A full range of marker and limit functions is also designed into the analysers to facilitate measurements.

They analyse antenna system performance, trends and problems in the field. With separate Windows-based data analysis software, users can analyse the antenna system performance, trends and problems in their PC.
