SAF Spectrum Compact handheld spectrum analyser

The SAF Spectrum Compact is said to be the first handheld spectrum analyser and power-in-band measurement tool covering 6-24 GHz licensed and licence-free frequency bands. 

The ultralight and easy-to-use device is suitable for any microwave radio engineer or field technician performing installation work, troubleshooting a link, investigating interference or gathering data for site planning or reporting purposes.

While conventional spectrum analysers are large, heavy and expensive, the SAF Spectrum Compact is designed to fit in the palm of the hand, has a high-contrast touch screen for convenient outdoor use and weighs only 300 grams.

The device can read microwave signal form, quality, Tx power, frequency, antenna polarisation and other parameters; it can detect interference, find free channels and help align antennas quickly and precisely avoiding side-lobes.

Features include: a frequency range of 5.925-24.3 GHz (covered by three units); sensitivity of -105 dBm; battery life >4 h; sweep speed of 0.5 s @ 100 MHz span; instant on/off; and USB charging.
