Introduction
Anritsu introduces the next-generation, high-performance handheld Base Station Analyzer for installation and
maintenance of wireless networks. Delivered with a standard three-year warranty, the MT8220T BTS Master is the only
all-in-one, touchscreen handheld tool that combines cable and antenna testing, signal analysis for all cellular standards,
ultra-sensitive spectrum analysis, sophisticated interference tracking, and a vector signal generator for receiver testing in
a compact, easy-to-use instrument.
Cable and Antenna Analyzer Highlights
• Measurements: RL, VSWR, Cable Loss, DTF, Phase, Gain
Warm-Up TimeAfter 10 minutes of warm-up time, where the instrument is left in the ON state.
Reference SignalWhen using internal reference signal.
Time Base ErrorTime base error = frequency accuracy x measured frequency
Typical PerformanceTypical specifications in parenthesis () represent the mean value of measured units and do not include any
UncertaintyA coverage factor of x1 is applied to the measurement uncertainties to facilitate comparison with other
Calibration CycleCalibration is within the recommended 12 month period (residual specifications also require calibration kit
All specifications and characteristics apply to Revision 2 instruments under the following conditions, unless
otherwise stated:
guard-bands or uncertainties. They are not warranted.
