Spectrum-analyzer updates enhance field use

Staff - November 17, 2012

Agilent has expanded the capabilities of its N934xC family of handheld spectrum analyzers with such features as remote control and peak power measurement of pulsed signals for increased versatility in field applications. According to the manufacturer, the firmware and software updates not only help accelerate RF and microwave analysis in outdoor environments, but also address evolving industry needs.


New standard features on the 20-GHz N9344C, 13.6-GHz N9343C, and 7-GHz N9342C handheld spectrum analyzers include:

• SCPI programming through socket and telnet connection;
• RRC (root raised cosine) filter for measuring LTE/W-CDMA channel power and adjacent channel power ratio;
• Keypad lock/unlock with password; and
• Channel standards for LTE, WiFi, and WiMAX.

Optional features include peak and average power-sensor measurement, additional security measures, and baseband input (N9342C only). These enhancements augment the existing capabilities of the N934xC series, such as MIL PRF 28800F Class 2 compliance, one-button measurement, clear-view screen, and backlit keys. The analyzers are lightweight, weighing just 7.9 lbs (3.6 kg), and their field-replaceable battery delivers up to four hours of operation.

Prices for the N934xC series of handheld spectrum analyzers start at $11,440.
