Affordable, Portable, Ready for the Field
Antenna and Transmission Line Analyzer for Wireless Communications Systems
The Tektronix NetTek Analyzer is a revolutionary portable BTS field tool. The YBA250 test module tailors this system for fast identification of base station antenna and transmission line trouble, and easy location of those faults. The YBA250 test module offers this capability at a surprisingly low price, in a rugged, easy-to-use package, suitable for all field environments.
Return Loss/VSWR
The YBA250 antenna test module allows you to quickly analyze the system using either Return Loss or VSWR. Comparisons against initial conformance tests enable users to easily identify degradation in system performance. Viewing the frequency response vs. channel tables for various standards provides easier interpretation of how the problem may be affecting performance.
Cable Loss
Cable loss can be measured using a simple, single port technique. This makes use of the Cable Loss feature of the YBA250. This feature allows measuring cable loss while connected to only one end of the cable. This is useful when access to the other end of the cable is difficult.
Distance-to-Fault (DTF)
The YBA250 test module helps locate antenna and transmission line faults quickly and easily. Using the Distance-to-Fault (DTF) capability, users are able to identify problem areas and their location. The YBA250's interface provides access to multiple cable types and easier setup of DTF parameters for faster troubleshooting.
CW Mode
The YBAS250 can be used as a sine wave, or continuous wave (CW) source. This is useful for many different trouble shooting applications.
Easy to Use
The NetTek BTS field tool is based around the familiar Windows CE operating system. As a result, users will spend less time learning the instrument and more time troubleshooting the network. The YBA250 test module puts measurement functions just a point of the finger away. Furthermore, built-in help guides speed the measurement process.
Common measurements have been optimized for quick, repeatable results. For example, novice users can display Distance-to-Fault results with straightforward Windows-like zoom and resize controls.
To further minimize troubleshooting time and improve effectiveness, users can control the YBA250's accuracy and resolution to optimize measurement results. For easier interpretation of these results, the YBA250 also enables user-defined masks to qualify antenna performance. This provides faster analysis and allows users to share masks and results.
Advanced Calibration
By using Tektronix' expert factory calibration program, the YBA250 speeds up and simplifies the troubleshooting process. By enabling users to reference a single calibration across the entire frequency range, we have eliminated antiquated calibration procedures each time the frequency or display range is changed.
Insertion Loss and Insertion Gain
System and RF component performance can be easily analyzed with the two port insertion loss or insertion gain capability of the YBA250, when used in combination with a YBT250. This capability allows measurements of cable, connector, and attenuator loss. It also allows measurements of filters, duplexers, RF path gain, amplifiers, antenna isolation, and many other general purpose RF measurements.
The Insertion Loss and/or Insertion Gain capability also allows measurements of Tower Mounted Amplifiers (TMAs, or receiver preamplifiers) while the TMA is still on the tower. Caution: Please check your country's laws regarding transmitters before using the NetTek to transmit a test signal
