ANRITSU: Field Master™ MS2080A

Handheld RF spectrum analyzer with 4 GHz and 6 GHz frequency range, optional RTSA, tracking generator, cable and antenna analyzer, interference hunting, 5G/LTE base station testing.

The MS2080A builds on Anritsu’s pioneering history of developing reliable and dependable instruments for the world’s most demanding RF measurements in the toughest environments. Weighing less than 9 pounds (4 kg), the MS2080A is small, compact, and easy to carry.

When hunting for interfering RF signals in the field, MS2080A offers a wide range of features to identify and locate the source. A fast sweep speed of 45 GHz/s coupled with AM/FM demod and RF source geolocation help pinpoint the position of interfering signals fast. The optional real-time spectrum analyzer captures even the shortest of bursted or TDD signals and the addition of the S331P Site Master enables cable and antenna line sweep measurements on the same instrument.

LTE and 5G base station measurement options support operators and contractors perform the essential measurements when installing or optimizing the network.

A tracking generator option enables the testing of cable and filter insertion loss. The tracking generator also includes an offset tracking feature for conversion loss measurements on frequency translation devices, including mixers and downconverters.

For use on the bench, the hard case with rubberized easy grip bumpers and integrated kick stand makes the MS2080A an ideal instrument for general purpose lab measurements where portability and space are at a premium.
