Anritsu MS2723B Spectrum Master
The World’s First 20 GHz Handheld Spectrum Analyzer
The Anritsu MS2721B, MS2723B and MS2724B are the most advanced ultra-portable spectrum analyzers on the market, featuring unparalleled performance and size at a modest price.
<-153 dBm Displayed Average Noise Level Typical @ 1 GHz
Unprecedented in handheld battery powered spectrum analyzers, the sensitivity of the Spectrum Master family delivers the ability to measure very low level signals. Coupled with a wide range of resolution bandwidth choices, you can configure the Spectrum Master to meet your most challenging measurement needs.
As the spectrum becomes more and more congested, the ability to measure low level signals becomes more and more important not only for interference detection but also for wireless system planning.
Field Use
Operating convenience is of paramount importance when equipment is used in the field.
The input attenuation value can be tied to the reference level, reducing the number of parameters a field technician may have to set. The RBW/VBW and the span/RBW ratios can be set to values that are best for the measurements being made, further easing the technician’s burden and reducing the chances of errors.
Over 1000 traces with names up to 40 characters long may be saved in the 256 MB non-volatile compact flash memory. These traces can later be copied into a PC using the built-in USB 2.0 connector or the 10/100 Mbit Ethernet connection. Measurements may also be saved directly to Compact Flash or USB Flash Drive.
Commonly needed measurements are built in. These include field strength, occupied bandwidth, channel power, adjacent channel power ratio, AM/FM/ SSB demodulation and carrier to interference (C/I) ratio measurements.
The Spectrum Master family has very wide dynamic range, allowing measurement of very small signals in the presence of much larger signals. These pictures show a measurement of a –114 dBm signal with and without the presence of a –22 dBm signal only 20 kHz away.
Lab Use
Measurement flexibility is important for lab use. Resolution bandwidth and video bandwidth can be independently set to meet a user’s measurement needs. In addition the input attenuator value can be set by the user and the preamplifier can be turned on or off as needed.
For maximum flexibility, sweep triggering can be set to free run, or to do a single sweep. In zero span, the sweep can be set to trigger when a signal meets or exceeds a certain power level or it can be externally triggered.
The span can be set anywhere from 10 Hz to 7.1, 13, or 20 GHz in addition to zero span.
Using battery-powered equipment to measure powerline related sidebands on a signal source removes any question as to the source of the sidebands.
Continuous frequency coverage from 9 kHz to 20 GHz gives the wireless professional the performance needed for the most demanding measurements.
Whether your need is for spectrum monitoring, WiFi and WiFi5 installation and testing, RF and microwave signal measurements or cellular signal measurements, the Spectrum Master family gives you the tools you need to make the job easier and more productive. The built-in AM/FM/SSB demodulator simplifies the job of identifying interfering signals.
Features:
- Light Weight
- Weighing about seven pounds fully loaded, including a Li-Ion battery, this fully functional handheld spectrum analyzer is light enough to take anywhere, including up a tower.
- AM/FM/SSB Demodulation
- A built-in demodulator for AM, narrowband FM, wideband FM and single sideband (selectable USB and LSB) allows a technician to easily identify interfering signals. The demodulated audio can be heard either through the built-in speaker or through a standard cellphone headset. A demodulation marker is provided for easy tuning.
- Remote Tools
- Imagine sitting at your desk while controlling an Spectrum Master that is miles away, seeing the screen display and operating with an interface that looks exactly like the instrument itself. That is what Remote Tools lets you do.
- Local Language Support
- The Spectrum Master features eight languages English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Chinese, Italian and Korean, two custom user-defined languages can be uploaded into the instrument using Master Software Tools, supplied with the instrument.
- Fast Sweep Speed
- The Spectrum Master automatically sets the fastest sweep consistent with accurate measurements, and sweep speed in zero span can be set from 10 microseconds up to 600 seconds. This is faster and more flexible than any portable spectrum analyzer on the market today, simplifying the capture of intermittent interference signals.
- +43 dBm Maximum Safe Input Level
- Because the MS2721B can survive an input signal of +43 dBm (20 watts) without damage, you can rest assured that the MS2721B can survive in even the toughest RF environments. Maximum continuous input for measurement is +30 dBm. For the MS2723B and MS2724B the maximum safe input is +30 dBm.
- Spectrum Monitoring
- A critical function of any spectrum analyzer is the ability to accurately view a portion of the RF and microwave spectrum. The Spectrum Master performs this function admirably thanks to the wide frequency range and excellent dynamic range. A built-in 256 MB compact flash memory module allows over 1,000 traces to be stored. The Compact Flash connector allows compact flash memory to expand the trace storage without limit. A 512 Mb compact flash module can hold over 13,000 spectrum analyzer sweeps. USB Flash Drives may be used for convenient transfer of data.
- Limit Lines
- The Spectrum Master includes two types of limit lines, lower limit lines and upper limit lines. Limit lines may be used either for visual reference or for pass/fail criteria by implementing limit alarms. Limit alarm failures are reported if a signal is above the upper limit line or below the lower limit line. Each limit line may consist of up to 40 segments.
- Transmissive Color Display
- The MS2721B, MS2723B and MS2724B 21.5 cm (8.5 in.) SVGA color transmissive LCD display screen is readable outdoors.
