Tektronix H500

Tektronix H500 Spectrum Analyser (call for availability)

The Tektronix H500 is a real-time, spectrum Analyser with DPX™ Live RF spectrum display of 125 µs minimum signal duration for 100% Probability of Intercept (POI) and signal classification capability. The Tektronix H500 Analyser will quickly scan the RF environment, classify the known signals, and help you locate the unknown signals with its field-proven signal hunting tools. Featuring real-time DPX™ Live RF spectrum display technology, the Tektronix Analyser offers practical solutions for discovering transient events that slip past conventional spectrum Analysers. With field-ready, rugged hardware featuring outstanding displayed average noise level, spurious free dynamic range, phase noise, and easy LAN networking capability in a handheld unit, the Tektronix H500 Analyser is a great choice for general-purpose spectrum measurements and ideal signal-hunting tools.

Features and Specifications of the Tektronix H500 Spectrum Analyser include:

Scan:

Revolutionary DPX™ Live RF spectrum display technology with DPX Spectrum Mask provides intuitive understanding of live RF signals using colors based on frequency of occurrence, processing up to 10,000 spectrums/sec with a 100% Probability of Intercept (POI) to capture pulsed signals, radar emissions, hopping signals, and any other intermittent signals with a minimum duration as brief as 125 µs

Benchtop spectrum Analyser performance in a ruggedized handheld battery-operated field unit offers better than 70 dB spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), guaranteed = -95 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset phase noise specifications from 10 kHz to 6.2 GHz

Excellent sensitivity for detecting very low-level signals with -153 dBm DANL at 10 Hz RBW (equivalent to -163 dBm/Hz) such as RF bugs and unauthorized transmitters

Spectrum Correlation Function (SCF) finds "embedded" signals or interferers that hide under other wideband signals

LAN interface for remote control and unattended monitoring stations for spectrum awareness
