Tektronix RSA518A for Rent, USB Real Time Spectrum Analyzer, 9kHz to 18GHz

Product Highlights

The Tektronix RSA518A USB spectrum analyzers offer high performance portable spectrum analysis in a rugged battery-powered package. The heart of the system is the USB-based RF spectrum analyzer that captures 40 MHz realtime bandwidths with great fidelity in harsh environments. With 70 dB spurious free dynamic range and frequency coverage to 18.0 GHz, all signals of interest can be examined with high confidence in your measurement results. The optional tracking generator enables gain/loss measurements for quick tests of filters, duplexers and other network elements, and you can add cable and antenna measurements of VSWR, return loss, distance to fault and cable loss as needed.

The Tektronix RSA518A operates with SignalVu-PC, a powerful program used as the basis of Tek's traditional spectrum analyzers. SignalVu-PC offers a deep analysis capability previously unavailable in high performance batteryoperated solutions. Direction finding and signal strength measurements are quick and easy with the standard SignalVu-PC software. SignalVu-PC offers a wealth of application-oriented options available either installed on the instrument, or as a floating license that can be moved between instruments or attached to your PC. For field operations, a complete solution requires a Windows Tablet or laptop for instrument operation, record keeping and communication.
