iQA Series

Portable Passive Intermodulation Analyzer

The iQA series Passive Intermodulation (PIM) analyzer is a feature rich, high power PIM test solution. This eld proven analyzer enables network operators to improve site performance by nding and eliminating sources of passive intermodulation at the cell site. The design includes an integrated panel PC with intuitive touch screen interface for performing tests and generating site reports.

WARNING: Use of the portable PIM analyzer in a radiating mode, for example when connected to an antenna not enclosed in an anechoic environment, may be a violation of licensing regulations. Users should have permission in advance, from any licensed operators that might be affected by these tests. Furthermore, radiating high RF power can pose a personnel risk.

Vertical orientation for easy access to user interface.

Self contained, ruggedized transport case.
