Product Description:
Modern RF/ microwave systems are increasingly pushing their performance to technical limits. Designers write more stringent specifications on components and define more stringent signal parameters. All of this has field maintainers scrambling to find more accurate and affordable handheld test equipment. Anritsu has introduced the industry's most affordable yet comprehensive solution, the MS2025B VNA Master (500 kHz to 6 GHz). It's a vector network analyzer, it's a power meter, it's a vector voltmeter. It's easy to think of the VNA Master as the "Swiss Army knife of S-parameters." But that's a mistake, because while SAK can perform many different functions, it doesn't do any of them very well. And the VNA Master does a very good job of many measurements. Error-correcting VNA technology brings modern precision to field S-parameters, with an external power sensor that accurately measures the transmitted power and vector voltmeter options that match the cable phase very precisely.
RF engineers and technicians on site provide installation and maintenance support for aerospace, defense and general communications systems around the world. These might typically include radar on Navy ships, communications on Army vehicles, and route tests for Air Force and commercial jets. They support VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) antennas in global radio navigation systems. They often encounter a wide variety of system components that can cause the entire system to fail: antennas, cables, filters, multiplexers, amplifiers, isolators, circulators, switches, and other complex components. The VNA Master is equipped with a new touch screen display that provides the most intuitive measurement control under field diagnostic conditions.
