Pendulum 2241 Path Align-R
RENT Pendulum 2241 Path Align-R (Call for Availability)
The Pendulum 2241 Path Align-R is an innovative path alignment tool meticulously crafted to optimize and align the transmission paths between microwave sites swiftly and precisely. Designed for efficiency, this device eliminates the need for radios, test equipment, cell phones, ground technicians, or even on-site AC power, enabling users to complete alignment tasks in mere minutes.
This advanced system includes comprehensive communication capabilities, featuring full duplex FM voice communication via the included headsets, allowing tower technicians to converse before the alignment process commences. This crucial feature significantly reduces the complexities and frustrations commonly encountered during site-to-site coordination, resulting in savings of both time and costs in the alignment process.
The Pendulum 2241 serves dual functions as both a tuneable synthesized signal source and a narrow-band receiver. With a fixed output level of 0 dBm, the transmitter achieves optimal performance for long path lengths while minimizing potential interference with adjacent links. The receiver is engineered for high sensitivity and narrow bandwidth, ensuring accurate signal measurement with excellent rejection of adjacent frequencies. User-friendly front panel thumbwheel switches allow for tuning across frequency bands with a remarkable resolution of 1 MHz, all operated by a reliable internal microcontroller.
