Anritsu MS27100A Spectrum Monitoring Module for OEM applications

Click2Contact

Anritsu has introduced the MS27100A Spectrum Monitoring Module, bringing the company’s RF spectrum analysis technology to OEM applications. Engineers designing systems to locate illegal and unlicensed interfering signals within wireless networks can integrate the product into their custom hardware to achieve a tool for security, aerospace and defence applications.

The module provides a high-performance RF engine in a compact form factor, allowing it to be easily designed into any spectrum analysis system. Engineers can write their own monitoring program applications using available SCPI commands to provide customisation and flexibility. The device also features an IF frequency output so proprietary algorithms can be used for further processing.

Covering the 9 kHz to 6 GHz frequency range, the product is capable of sweeping at rates up to 24 GHz/s, allowing many types of signals, including periodic or transient transmissions as well as short ‘bursty’ signals, to be captured.

As with all Anritsu field spectrum analysis tools, the MS27100A can withstand extreme environmental conditions. An integrated web server is embedded into each spectrum analysis probe for remote power cycling, automated system recovery protocols and secure firmware updates so it can be deployed up to thousands of kilometres from the control centre.
