New from IFR Systems, the 2399 portable spectrum analyser is aimed at a wide range of applications from mobile comms service workshops to broadcast TV and education.
Analyser stretches to point-multipoint frequencies
IFR Systems has announced a 46GHz addition to its 6840 Microwave System Analyser (MSA) Series.
The 2026B 2.51GHz model is designed for the higher-frequency needs of engineers working in the 2.4GHz ISM frequency band, which is increasingly used for wireless LAN applications, including Bluetooth, whereas the 2026A 2.05GHz model is for engineers who require less bandwidth.
The new products allow engineers to get the right bandwidth they need at the right price.
The 2026A with two or three sources is priced 10% below the higher frequency model.
Ideal for R and D and manufacturing where there is a need for two or three combined sources for conducting tests such as intermodulation and selectivity performance of components and receiver assemblies, the 2026A/B signal generators are the only signal sources on the market to provide more than one broadband source in a single instrument.
The use of a built-in combiner, switches and cables eliminates many of the measurement uncertainties introduced by connecting separate signal generators.
By adding Option 116 to the 2026A or 2026B, the engineer can extend the 2026 to test GSM-based communication systems.
Designed specifically for testing amplifiers deployed in GSM basestations, the 2026 with Option 116 can also be used in conjunction with a radio test set for providing the interference signals for testing GSM receivers and GSM intermodulation tests.
The 2026A 2.05GHz and 2026B 2.51GHz signal sources are both available seven weeks from receipt of order.
Option 116 for GSM is available for all 2026 models and upgrades for GSM for existing 2026 customers can be made available.
Availability is five weeks for customers who are upgrading existing instruments and seven weeks for a new instrument with Option 116.
