Anritsu S810C – Site Master Microwave Transmission Line and Antenna Analyzer; 3.3 GHz to 10.5 GHz

The Anritsu S810C Site Master is a handheld, battery-operated microwave transmission line and antenna analyzer covering 3.3 GHz to 10.5 GHz. Purpose-built for installation, verification, troubleshooting, and repair of microwave communication systems, it delivers accurate fault detection and transmission diagnostics across coaxial cables and waveguides. The instrument combines vector error correction and waveguide dispersion compensation to enhance measurement accuracy and repeatability. Superior RF interference immunity to -10 dBm - including on-channel interference - ensures reliable operation in live network environments. Distance-to-Fault analysis with up to 517 selectable data points enables long-range fault localization. Non-volatile memory stores 200 measurement traces for field documentation and trend analysis.
