19" remote spectrum analyser

12 October 2011 Test & Measurement

Narda Test Solutions has introduced a new spectrum analyser available in three different versions: NRA-2500, NRA-3000 and NRA-6000. These 19” modules are optimised for SatCom, broadcast and wireless applications. Powerful remote control via the 100BASE-TX Ethernet interface allows seamless integration into users’ applications.

While the NRA-2500 with its frequency range from 5 MHz to 2,5 GHz is optimised for use in D-SNG vehicles, teleports and V-SAT stations, the NRA-3000 with its frequency range from 9 kHz to 3 GHz finds application in broadcasting stations and at functionally strategic transmitter sites. The NRA-6000 is the wireless analyser, having the largest frequency range, from 9 kHz to 6 GHz. In addition to the usual communications services, this instrument can also handle the latest applications such as WiMAX, WIFI or LTE.

All three versions are just one unit (1U) high and weigh in at less than five kilograms. Low power consumption of less than 25 VA and noiseless operation without the need for ventilation fans mean that the analysers are easily fitted, particularly in mobile systems or confined spaces.

Options such as the level meter and multichannel power functions simplify programming and speed up measurements. All three NRA versions use the latest FFT technology, giving fast measurement speeds as well as reliable and precise results over the entire frequency range using narrow or wideband resolution, and with excellent RF specifications.
