Rohde & Schwarz FSU50 Spectrum Analyzer
Experience unparalleled performance with the Rohde & Schwarz FSU50 Spectrum Analyzer, a groundbreaking tool designed to redefine spectrum analysis. Building upon the renowned capabilities of previous R&S FSE and R&S FSIQ series analyzers, the FSU50 exhibits exceptional dynamic range and reliability, making it an ideal choice for development, quality management, and production environments.
Key Features and Specifications
The Rohde & Schwarz FSU50 Spectrum Analyzer delivers impressive specifications that facilitate precise measurements, even in challenging conditions:
- Two-tone Intercept (TOI) > 20 dBm, typ. +25 dBm
- 1 dB compression (0 dB RF attenuation): +13 dBm
- Displayed Average Noise Level: –158 dBm (1 Hz bandwidth)
- Adjacent-Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR): 77 dB typ. for 3GPP, increasing to 84 dB with noise correction
- High Second-Order Intercept (HSOI): 55 dBm typ.
- Phase Noise: –160 dBc/Hz typ. at 10 MHz carrier offset
These attributes empower users to easily detect small spurious signals, even amidst robust carrier transmissions, such as those commonly found at base stations.
