Rohde & Schwarz ZVH handheld antenna and cable analyser range

Click2Contact

The handheld analysers from the Rohde & Schwarz ZVH series, with their compact form factor (194 x 300 x 69 mm) and lightweight construction (3 kg), are specifically designed for use by field engineers, helping them to locate cable faults and connection losses and carry out antenna matching, reflection measurements and power metering.

With a maximum spurious signal level of 17 dBm, the units are provided with a choice of 100 kHz to 3.6 GHz or 100 kHz to 8.0 GHz frequency ranges and have a 100 dB dynamic range. They provide either single- or two-port vector network analysis plus directional power measurement (compatible with GSM/EDGE, 3GPP WCDMA, LTE, DVB-T and DAB wireless standards).

The rugged units are supplied in robust, splash-proof housing suitable for demanding outdoor environments. A 4.5 h battery life enables them to undertake extensive periods of testing between recharges, while a built-in GPS receiver allows accurate location-finding. Each analyser has a user interface that consists of a 6.5″ colour LCD with VGA resolution and easily accessible function keys.

The analyser’s ability to preprogram test routines means it is possible to ensure that engineers execute tests in the same way. This can help to shorten test times and improve consistency levels.
