SHA800A analyzers combine the capabilities of a Spectrum Analyzer, a Vector Network Analyzer, and a Cable/Antenna Tester all in one intuitive handheld package. With a frequency range up to 7.5 GHz, these analyzers deliver reliable automatic measurements and multiple modes of operation. The spectrum analyzer includes a built-in amplifier and independent signal source, fast scanning speed, high sensitivity, and can monitor RF broadcasts, perform channel power scanning, power monitoring, wireless interference location, electromagnetic compatibility measurements, and other functions. The cable and antenna testing function includes built-in DC voltage bias, with a 1-path-2-port vector network analysis function. It can measure TDR, VSWR, debug port matching issues, perform insertion loss measurements, tower amplifier debugging, cable fault location, Smith charts, etc.
With two models (SHA851A/SHA852A) the specifications include:
Spectrum Analyzer:
- Frequency Range from 9 kHz up to 3.6/7.5 GHz,
