PROMAX Hybrid Fibre-Coaxial Network Analyzer
The operating frequency range spans from 5 Mhz to 1700 Mhz, fulfilling DOCSIS 3.0 and 3.1 regulations. The device has an available frequency band up to 200 Mhz for the return path (upstream) and up to 1700 Mhz for the forward path (downstream), ensuring extra bandwidth for future network upgrades.
The built-in cable modem in the Cable Ranger can be used to take measurements before registering into the DOCSIS network, for instance the ranging process display or the return band attenuation measurement. It can also be used to take measurements under registered mode, such as PLR, Delay and Jitter, for IPTV and VoIP quality of service (QoS) assessment, by forwarding RTPS and UGS packets respectively onto the network. In addition, it displays all the IP addresses from network devices involved in the communication process.
Additional technical specifications are available on PROMAX’s website.
Rohde & Schwarz Interference Locator
The instrument’s polychrome display enables resolution of superimposed pulsed signals, making it possible to detect and differentiate complex signal bursts that cannot be seen with traditional swept-tuned spectrum analyzers. Furthermore, the MNT100 can detect very low-level signals due to its high spurious-free dynamic range.
The MNT100 is available in various RF interference locator packages: a standard locator package for manual handheld interference hunting, an automatic locator package for automatic mobile direction finding and the complete locator package comprising basic and automatic locator equipment.
