Wide Measurement Range
The MS2711B delivers a broad range of performance from ?115 dBm to + 20 dBm for finding the source of interfering signals in various wireless technologies including cellular, PCS, mobile data, mobile satellite, fixed wireless and SMR applications.

Preamplifier
With the built-in preamplifier activated, the sensitivity of the MS2711B can be extended to ?115 dBm, enabling full testing and troubleshooting of very low level signals.

Dynamic Attenuation
Dynamic attenuation tracks the input signal level, automatically adjusting the reference level to protect the MS2711B in situations of high RF signal levels, or enhancing the instrument sensitivity in situations of low-level RF signal input. With the built-in preamplifier, dynamic attenuation automatically activates or de-activates the preamplifier according to signal environment.

One Button Measurements
Using the MS2711B?s measurement function, dedicated one-button measurements such as channel power, adjacent channel power ratio and occupied bandwidth measurements can confirm the distortion level or channel power performance of a transmitter. Additionally, the MS2711B can conduct a series of spurious measurements when analyzing a wireless base station transmitter, and can use field strength mode to measure propagation and coverage or to pinpoint electromagnetic leakage in broadcast systems.

Tracking Generator
The optional built-in tracking generator adds scalar analysis capability from 10 MHz to 3 GHz. The tracking generator function can be used to measure gain, frequency response, flatness and even return loss of wireless communication systems. A builtin attenuator provides an output power range of ?60 to 0 dBm.

Multilingual User Interface
The new multilingual user interface features on-screen menus and messages in 6 different languages (English, Chinese, Japanese, German, French and Spanish).

AM/FM Receiver
A built-in AM/FM demodulator enables testing and troubleshooting of wireless communications systems. An internal speaker or headset easily interprets signals of interest.

Marker Functions
A full range of marker functions, such as peak, delta and center give users faster and more comprehensive measurements of displayed signals. Additionally, up to six individual markers can be displayed at one time on the MS2711B.

Single and Segmented Limit Lines
The MS2711B features both single and segmented limit line capability. Limit lines simplify amplitude measurements, giving users the ability to make quick, simple pass/fail measurements.

Trace Overlay
The MS2711B provides the ability for users to visually compare a current trace against a reference trace that is stored in the unit?s memory.

Reference Level Offset
The reference level offset feature allows measurement of high signal levels with the use of an attenuator. By adding an offset value to the displayed reference level, high signal levels can then be easily and accurately displayed by the MS2711B.

Quick Zoom-In, Zoom-Out Display
Enter span parameters directly, or use the quick zoomin/ zoom-out feature to quickly reduce or increase span settings in a 1-2-5 sequence.

Trace Averaging
Use the trace averaging function to make easier and more accurate noise-related measurements. By selecting the trace averaging function users can select up to 25 sweep averages.

Max Hold
Use the MS2711B?s Max Hold feature to display and hold the maximum response of the input signal.

Field Strength Measurements
The MS2711B comes standard with field strength capability. Field strength measurements can be used to pinpoint electromagnetic (EM) leakage in broadcast systems or areas of weak coverage in mobile communication systems.

50O to 75O Interface
The MS2711B comes standard with a 50O interface feature that allows measurements of a 75O system while retaining amplitude accuracy with the 50O input of the MS2711B Handheld Spectrum Analyzer.

THE SMART SOLUTION FOR FIELD MEASUREMENTS

The MS2711B is perfect for radio communications agencies needing to monitor signals and sources of interference in field environments.

Power, frequency, occupied bandwidth, frequency deviation, signal strength, AM/FM demodulation and modulation depth measurements are easily executed with the MS2711B?s intuitive soft-key/hard-key user interface.

The MS2711B provides a broad range of testing capability across a variety of field applications including:

• Detection of Signal Interference
• Monitoring of Selected and Unselected Transmissions
• Detection of Unlicensed Transmitters
• Detection of Undesired Emissions
• Protection Against Concealed Transmitters
• Coverage/Signal Strength Mapping

Interference
With the increased deployment of wireless technologies, identifying the source of RF interference problems can be very difficult. The MS2711B solves this problem by providing the noise floor and phase noise performance necessary to enable easy detection of signal interference. The unit?s built-in AM/FM demodulation and zero span capability further facilitates detection of signal interference.With the unit?s RS-232 interface, a notebook computer can be used for automated control and collection of interference data in the field. A modem can also be used for remote operation.

Antenna Alignment
The MS2711B is ideal for field alignment of small dish antennas. Simply tune to the frequency of interest and monitor received signal strength until position is optimized.

Signal Mapping
Ideal for site surveys and other signal mapping applications, the MS2711B can optimize placement of antennas and access points in a WLAN or WPBX network. Identification of potential in-band interference as well as transmitted signal quality can be easily performed as the installer moves about the installation site. Use of the built-in preamplifier can further facilitate the identification of stray signals or optimize access point placement.

On-Site System Test
Convenient operating procedures, high sensitivity and excellent repeatability enables the MS2711B to pinpoint the smallest RF performance degradation. Harmonic distortion, Channel Power, Occupied Bandwidth, Antenna-to-Antenna isolation and potential interference problems can be detected before small problems grow into big, costly, time-consuming headaches and unwanted site downtime.

Spurious Emissions
In-Band and Out-of-Band spurious emissions can cause havoc with Tx-Rx communication systems. Real-time monitoring of spurious emissions from a transmitter or receiver can uncover unwanted signals before they interfere with other users of the radio spectrum, rendering your system noncompliant.

Channel Power
One of the most common measurements for transmitters is the channel power measurement. Channel power measures power and power spectral density in a given bandwidth and can quickly confirm if a transmitter is operating in compliance with system specification.

Adjacent Channel Power
The adjacent channel power measurement allows the user to measure the amount of (or ratio of) power leakage into adjacent radio channels.

Occupied Bandwidth
Monitoring of a transmitter?s occupied bandwidth enables the user to determine if the transmitter is functioning properly. The MS2711B provides Xdb Down and % of power methods to assist users in making transmitter occupied bandwidth measurements.
