Anritsu MS2719B

Powerful Yet Affordable Solution for Microwave Spectrum Analysis

The MS2719B Economy Microwave Spectrum Analyzer is designed to be an affordable solution for bench testing of microwave components, subsystems, and systems. Designed for engineers and technicians needing advanced yet economical spectrum analysis tools, the MS2719B redefines the economy class by delivering impressive value while lowering the cost-of-test. It serves both the R&D test bench as well as the production line applications.

The MS2719B can be enhanced with up to 15 wireless options for testing protocols from GSM to Mobile WiMAX and TD-SCDMA.

With its upper frequency range of 20 GHz, the MS 2719B brings economic spectrum measurements to many commercial, as well as aerospace and defense microwave system applications. This includes high-technology systems operating in the Ku-band range. You can measure signal performance on a wide variety of microwave systems; radar, satellite and terrestrial communications, and complex military communications and defense electronics systems.

In addition to all those general purpose measurements you can also expand your testing capabilities with thirteen specialized optional wireless test procedures described below.

The MS2719B offers a full suite of measurement features such as RMS detection, extensive marker functions, including counted markers, and marker noise measurements, limit testing, and AM/FM/SSB demodulator and more. A quasi-peak detector is standard and CISPR bandwidths allow for EMC pre-compliance testing.

A 37.8 MHz IF output option allows users to do their own signal processing. Bandwidths of 7, 10, or 16 MHz can be selected.

To simplify measurements and ensure accuracy, several smart measurements are built into the MS2719B, including channel power, adjacent channel power ratio, carrier to interference ratio (C/I), and field strength. An AM/FM/SSB demodulator is included.

They also offer unexpected performance bonuses such as 65 dB range input step attenuator and 20 watt input protection which can significantly reduce the concern of damage by inexperienced operators. Optional high accuracy power meter functionality supports Anritsu s 6 GHz PSN50 sensor with +/- 0.16 dB power measurement accuracy.

It also offers optional wide 10 MHz capture bandwidth and optional W-CDMA/HSDPA RF measurements and W-CDMA demodulation for simplifying test of Node-B transmitters.

The MS2719B spectrum analyzer has low phase noise of -102 dBc/Hz typical at 1 GHz @ 10 kHz offset, best in its class typical DANL of -159 dBm at 1 GHz in a 1 Hz RBW, resolution bandwidth (RBW) range of 1 Hz to 3 MHz and video bandwidth (VBW) range of 1 Hz to 3 MHz. It also has the fastest sweep speeds of any spectrum analyzer in its class.
