The Analyze-R™, Model 2261A

The Analyze-R™, model 2261A, is an affordable, easy-to-use, application-specific Spectrum Monitor/Analyzer that addresses the 900 MHz & 2.4 GHz unlicensed ISM bands; the 3.4-3.6 GHz licensed/unlicensed bands; the 4.9 GHz Public Safety band; the unlicensed 5 GHz U-NII / ISM bands, and the 5.8 GHz DSCR band. The Analyze-R™ is designed for non-technical personnel doing on-site spectrum monitoring and analysis, surveying, installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting of the latest wireless communication systems. The Analyze-R™ contains a data

logger, with an embedded GPS receiver and GPS-disciplined real-time clock, for recording displayed data. This unique instrument is designed for field use, is a fraction of the cost of a full-featured general-purpose spectrum analyzer, more sensitive, and far easier to use! An optional feature provides front panel observation and calculation of 'Total Channel Power' within a user-defined bandwidth, in real-time, on site. This feature replaces the need for a separate power meter and verifies channel power anomalies due to fading/interference and improper equipment operation-something a power meter cannot do. The user can now check the transmitter, connection cables, antennas, and receiver for proper equipment and path operation. All this is done without the need to post-process the information in Log View-R. The companion Log View-R™ software (included) provides a virtual graphic display of the original recorded data for analysis and can program the instrument for unattended data recording. Additionally, Log View-R™ will display and automatically compute the 'Total Channel Power' of both the carrier and the interference signals-normalized to the carrier's bandwidth-calculating the Carrier-to-Interference figure (C/I) in dBm. This indicates the real-world fade margin at the site-the single most important information a spectrum analyzer can provide a wireless operator. The Analyze- R™ is the only instrument on the market that correctly provides this information!

The Analyze-R™ is recommended by both Proxim Radio and Motorola Canopy™ as the ideal solution for resolving interference and multipath issues in their respective broadband wireless networks
