Anritsu TETRA-enables S412E Handheld Analyzer
Combining the LMR Master’s performance and compact design with the new TETRA measuring and analysis tools makes the handheld analyzer a comprehensive test solution for deploying, installing, and maintaining public safety, transportation, utility and critical communication networks, including those utilizing the TETRA technology.
Equipped with these new options, the LMR Master S412E can be used by field technicians and engineers for over-the-air and coverage analysis of TETRA networks. For advanced field analysis, the TETRA analyzer includes a special TETRA Summary display that enables users to review key data, such as base and mobile color codes, mobile network code, location area code, and mobile station maximum transmit power level. This capability allows users to quickly and accurately diagnose and troubleshoot system performance of TETRA networks using over-the air analysis without preamplifiers.
In addition to the new capabilities for TETRA networks, Anritsu has updated and enhanced the LMR Master Options 721 and 722 to match technical and lexical changes in the ITC-R Positive Train Control (PTC) standard. Among the updates are the alignment of symbol rates to “Half Rate” and “Full Rate,” and support for new “burst/packet” air interfaces in the ITC-R standard, including updated signal generator patterns.
The TETRA options expand the measurement capabilities of the LMR Master S412E, which combines all of the tools required to install, maintain, and certify analog and digital Land Mobile Radio (LMR) and Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) networks in the shop or field. All LMR Master S412E analyzers come with ultra-low noise spectrum analyzer, signal generator, internal power meter, and analog FM analysis and coverage mapping.
Further extending the capabilities of the LMR Master S412E, Anritsu has also added support for the MA2700A InterferenceHunter Handheld Direction Finding System. Equipped with a built-in electronic compass, GPS receiver, and Preamplifier, the MA2700A can be attached to a wide variety of directional antennas.
Users can extend the value of their LMR Master S412E investment by adding options, such as interference analyzer, external power sensors (inline and terminating), distance-to-fault (DTF), and vector voltmeter. Signal analyzer/generator options are available for APCO P25 (Phase 1 FDMA and Phase 2 TDMA), NXDN™, MotoTRBO™/DMR, and TETRA. The LMR Master S412E also offers analysis of LTE and WiMAX (IEEE 802.16 fixed and mobile) for mobile broadband networks. When equipped with the optional internal GPS, coverage analysis for all signal analyzers is available. All this testing capability is designed into a rugged, portable, handheld, battery-operated touchscreen package.
