Anritsu MS2724B Handheld Spectrum Analyzer

Overview

The Anritsu MS2724B is a next-generation handheld spectrum analyzer for highly accurate analysis of wireless LAN and cellular signals up to 20 GHz. Weighing less than 8 pounds, the MS2724B is ideal for measuring up to the fifth harmonic of 3G cellular phone base stations and combines portability with best-in-class measurement capability for both engineering bench and field applications.

The instrument includes several smart measurements such as channel power, adjacent channel power ratio, carrier-to-interference ratio, and field strength. It features an integrated AM/FM/SSB demodulator for signal demodulation with audio output options, and supports remote programming via Ethernet with SCPI protocol.
