Anritsu S412E LMR Master Land Mobile Radio Modulation Analyzer

Engineers designed the Anritsu S412E for the installation and maintenance of public safety systems. The LMR Master is a powerful device. It combines a high-performance receiver and spectrum analyzer. It also includes a top handheld vector network analyzer.

Additionally, it has a signal generator for CW/P25 (Phase 1 & Phase 2), NXDN, ETSI DMR, and MotoTRBO. The power can be adjusted from 0dBm to -130 dBm.

The Anritsu S412E is an excellent tool for Land Mobile Radio (LMR) and Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) technicians. It helps engineers test the RF performance of various systems. These include NBFM, P25, P25 Phase 2 (TDMA), NXDN, ETSI DMR, MotoTRBO, ETSI TETRA, and LTE.

Useful for commercial, public safety, maritime, and critical infrastructure radio systems. Additionally, the LMR Master provides support for USA Class 1 railway ITC-R Positive Train Control systems.

The LMR Master S412E’s VNA has great transmission dynamic range performance of over 100 dB. This feature enables users to view and adjust the RF performance of key RF devices. These devices include filters, duplexers, transmitter combiners, receiver multi-couplers, and tower-mounted amplifiers. The measurements (in either frequency or time domain) are quickly displayed and updated with the S412E’s fast 850 μs/point sweep speed.

The display is variable from 2 to 4001 data points, allowing maximum flexibility for custom setups. For users who prefer a more streamlined interface, the display can also be set to emulate an Anritsu Site Master.

This solution has a great DANL of -152 dBm. This is with an RBW of 10 Hz, Atten of 0 dB, and frequency under 2.4 GHz. It also has a third-order intercept of more than +16 dBm.

This instrument is excellent for finding and locating low-level signals. These signals can interfere with land mobile radio systems, even when strong nearby transmitters are present.

The LMR Master S412E exhibits exceptionally low phase noise, with a typical value of less than -100 dBc/Hz at a 10 kHz offset. This feature allows for accurate measurement of NBFM, P25, NXDN, and DMR emission masks.

The high-accuracy power meter option provides true RMS measurements using external sensors, including inline sensors. It is the ideal solution for making accurate measurements of both CW and modulated signals. You can measure channelized power using the internal power meter. The channel scanner option lets users scan up to 20 channels easily.

Auto Test and Alignment System

The Auto Test and Alignment (ATA) system helps professionals who maintain and repair radios. This is particularly important in areas such as public safety, utilities, transportation, and private security. Reliable communication in these sectors is essential.

The Auto Test and Alignment system makes maintenance easier and faster. It automates complex testing and alignment tasks. These tasks would require a significant amount of time and manual labor without automation. This system provides clear and consistent results with minimal assistance required.

It helps technicians keep radios working at their best. This reduces downtime and makes critical communication networks more reliable. This increased efficiency not only saves valuable time but also reduces the risk of errors.

The Auto Test and Alignment system comprises the following:

• S412E LMR Master (with P25 options and firmware V4.72 or later)
• MX281000A Auto Test and Alignment software with licensing options
