Anritsu S818A

The Anritsu S818A Site Master cable and antenna analyzer performs return loss/SWR and fault identification in cellular, PCS/DCS, paging, WLAN/WPBX and other communication system applications.

The Anritsu S818A is designed to withstand the rigors of field use. The Site Master provides easy-to-use, accurate, repeatable performance in lightweight battery-operated units covering the 3.3 to 18 GHz range.

The Anritsu S818A is widely used in installation, deployment and periodic maintenance of cellular communication sites.

The Anritsu S818A’s menu driven interface requires little training and simplifies the field engineers and technicians task of site-to-site deployment and maintenance by identifying, recording and solving problems without sacrificing measurement accuracy.

A notebook computer can be used with the RS-232 interface for automated control and data collection in the field. Data traces can be easily and quickly downloaded from the Site Master to a PC database with a single menu selection or a printer via an RS-232 serial cable for analysis.

The Anritsu S818A uses vector error correction for delivering accurate, reliable and repeatable return loss/SWR and fault location measurements. The high immunity of the Anritsu S818A to interface noise allows conducting measurements of an active site without loss of accuracy.

The Anritsu S818A Site Master withstands harsh environments and rough handling as it is specifically designed for field environments. It can also be operated from a 12.5 Vdc source such as AC-DC adapter or a cigarette lighter adapter.

The Site Master Software Tools is a Windows program for cable and antenna analysis and will run on any computer with Windows 95, 98 or NT. Test data can be analyzed and compared to historical performance up to 200 Site Master trace memory locations can be downloaded with a single menu selection.

The Anritsu S818A site master cable and antenna analyzer is the preferred choice of service providers, network operators and contractors worldwide who install, deploy, maintain and troubleshoot wireless communication systems.
