The MS2687B is a spectrum analyser for evaluation of wideband signals such as CDMA and OFDM that are spreading in digital radio communications.

The MS2687B is a spectrum analyser for evaluation of wideband signals such as CDMA and OFDM that are spreading in digital radio communications At present, 5GHz wireless LAN technology (IEEE802.11a) is actively developing, achieving higher-speed data transmission than 2.4GHz wireless LANs (IEEE802.11b)

The need of low-cost OFDM signal evaluation is growing in equipment and device R and D market.

The MS2687B can be installed with the MX268x30A wireless LAN measurement software (sold separately), which enables this single platform to perform spectrum analysis and modulation analysis necessary for the development of wireless LAN instruments and devices using 5GHz-band OFDM signals.

The MS2687B was developed as a successor to MS2687A spectrum analyser, which was introduced to the market in August 2001.

The new MS2687B improves the average noise level of microwave band by approximately 10dB compared with the MS2687A, enabling harmonic/spurious measurements in wider dynamic range.

Furthermore, in combination with wireless LAN measurement software released in September 2002, a low-cost solution is provided for spectrum analysis and modulation analysis all performed on a single instrument, which had required large and expensive equipment such as general modulation analysers and spectrum analysers in the past.
