Multi-functional Spectrum Analyzer Brings Unprecedented
Performance and Measurement Capability to Interference Hunting and Network
Verification Applications
Morgan Hill, CA – April 12, 2023 – Anritsu Company expands its
Field Master™
MS2080A, a multi-functional spectrum analyzer that combines nine instruments
into a single solution, to operate up to 6 GHz. With extended frequency
coverage, the MS2080A addresses growing congestion in the 6 GHz spectrum caused
by rapid growth in satellite services; cellular, commercial and LMR networks;
radio location services; and industrial scientific and medical networks. The
compact and portable spectrum analyzer provides insights into interference and
intermodulation that degrade network performance through its best-in-class
performance and features, bringing distinct benefits to base station
installation and maintenance (I&M) applications.
At 6 GHz, the MS2080A features fast sweep speed of 45 GHz/s for greater
insight over wider spans. It also has advanced user features, such as AM/FM
audio demodulation, and best-in-class RF performance, including ±1 dB
amplitude accuracy. Additionally, it supports a cable and antenna analyzer,
power meter, and 5G/LTE analysis to make it an ideal general-purpose instrument
that addresses measurement requirements for legacy and emerging wireless
networks.
Options Expand Measurement Capability Simultaneous with the launch of the
MS2080A 6 GHz frequency model, Anritsu announces a new AM/FM modulation quality
measurement option for all instruments in the Field Master family. The option
enables full characterization of broadcast transmitters, as required by national
regulators and transmitter owners. It provides a single screen display of RF
spectrum, audio spectrum, and audio oscilloscope, alongside modulation quality
and distortion values.
An optional real time spectrum analyzer (RTSA) provides real-time spectrum
analysis with 2 µs probability of intercept (POI). The RTSA has up to 40 MHz
analysis bandwidth and DANL of <-150 dBm, making it well-suited for capturing
intermittent and digitally modulated signals that can be hard to identify.
Spectrograms allow irregular and drifting signals to be captured, recorded, and
displayed.
The MS2080A conducts a full range of measurements for 5G FR1 radios to
support I&M of 5G New Radio (NR) and LTE base stations. Gated sweep analysis for
transmitter quality measurements to accurately verify FR1 carriers with 100 MHz
bandwidth is provided. The MS2080A offers full-channel, power-based, and 5G/LTE
modulation quality measurement-based coverage mapping for accurate Over-the-Air
(OTA) testing.
Rugged Design for Any Environment The MS2080A is a highly durable analyzer
that performs in the most challenging environments. It is the only instrument in
its class to provide 5 watts of continuous RF input overload protection,
preventing costly damage to the instrument’s front-end when used close to high
power transmitters or in high signal level environment.
A large 10-inch 1280 x 800 resolution display meets the demanding IK08
specification for direct knocks and drops. Common functions are always
accessible from the MS2080A display and side menus collapse to maximize
graphical results.
A soft case provides IP52 environmental protection to safeguard the
instrument during transport or rain. Weighing less than 4 kg, the MS2080A is
small, compact, and easy to carry.
