Anritsu Corp., Morgan Hill, Calif.

Anritsu Co. has introduced the MW82119B PIM Master™ that combines a 40 W, battery-operated PIM analyzer with a 2 MHz to 3 GHz cable and antenna analyzer, eliminating the need to carry multiple instruments to measure the RF performance of a cell site. The MW82119B PIM is MIL-STD-810G drop test rated and is designed to withstand transportation shock, vibration and harsh outdoor test conditions.

The VectorStar ME7838D 145 GHz Broadband system is the first VNA combining RF, microwave and two mm-wave bands in a single coaxial output. Through the use of the Anritsu-developed 0.8 mm coaxial connector, frequencies up to 145 GHz can be propagated within a coaxial transmission line without waveguide flange connections.

Anritsu Corporation Microwave Measurement Division (MMD) announces that the China National Institute of Metrology (NIM) Microwave Parameters Lab has selected the Anritsu VectorStar™ ME7838A 110 GHz broadband Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) system. The lab will use the advanced test solution to develop standards for on-wafer S-parameter calibration procedures.
