Tektronix RSA507A USB Spectrum Analyzer

The Tektronix RSA507A sets a new standard for portable spectrum analysis with its high-performance capabilities in a rugged, battery-powered design. Built to meet the demands of spectrum managers, interference hunters, and RF network maintenance professionals, the RSA507A empowers users to effectively track down elusive interferers and maintain robust RF networks.

Key Features and Specifications:

Frequency Range: 9 kHz to 7.5 GHz, providing comprehensive coverage for a wide array of analysis applications.

Acquisition Bandwidth: 40 MHz acquisition bandwidth enables real-time analysis, essential for capturing transient signals and enabling vector analysis.

Advanced Mapping Capabilities: Equipped with a standard GPS/GLONASS/Beidou receiver for precise location mapping.

Tracking Generator: An optional tracking generator facilitates gain/loss measurements, along with antenna and cable assessment.

Streaming Capture: Features streaming capture functionality for the recording and playback of long-term events.

Durability: Meets Mil-Std 28800 Class 2 environmental, shock, and vibration specifications, ensuring reliability in harsh conditions.

Battery Life: Internal battery supports extended field operations, enhancing mobility and operational flexibility.

Signal Processing Software: Comes with SignalVu-PC software, enabling real-time signal processing with DPX Spectrum/Spectrogram technology to streamline transient and interference hunting.

Signal Detection: Achieves a minimum signal duration of 100 μsec with a 100% probability of intercept, allowing for prompt identification of issues.

Custom Program Development: An application programming interface (API) is included, empowering users to develop tailored applications.

Complete Field Solution: Optional accessories such as tablet PCs, calibration kits, adapters, and phase-stable cables provide a full solution for interference investigations and transmitter maintenance.

The Tektronix RSA507A is designed for professionals who require confidence in their measurements while working in environments that challenge equipment durability. With a dynamic range of 70 dB and a USB-based system that offloads weight onto a lightweight laptop or tablet, users can perform their tasks with greater ease and efficiency.

The versatile tracking generator option enables convenient gain/loss measurements, supporting quick assessments of filters, duplexers, and other network elements while also allowing for VSWR, return loss, distance to fault, and cable loss measurements.

In conjunction with the powerful SignalVu-PC software, the RSA507A offers unparalleled analysis capabilities typically associated with higher-priced traditional spectrum analyzers, while delivering enhanced usability and cost-effectiveness in portable formats.
