The Anritsu MS2089A Site Master Handheld Cable & Antenna Analyzer, offered and supported by Avalon Test Equipment, is engineered for the demanding field environment of wireless installation, maintenance, DAS, broadcast and telecom infrastructure. It combines cable & antenna analysis (reflection, RL/VSWR, distance-to-fault) with spectrum analysis and optional vector network analysis, all in a rugged, portable instrument. With support for modern technologies like LTE, 5GNR, real-time spectrum analysis (RTSA) and interference detection, the MS2089A helps operators and technicians identify, locate and resolve faults faster, reducing downtime and improving network quality.
Key Features:
Cable & antenna analysis: reflection measurements (return loss, VSWR, cable loss), 1-port phase, Smith chart, DTF/VSWR distance-to-fault.
Spectrum analyzer capability: up to 9 kHz to 4/6 GHz depending on configuration, DANL down to ~-167 dBm with pre-amp, phase noise around -123 dBc/Hz typical.
Ultra-fast sweep speeds: ~350 µs/data point for the cable & antenna analyzer path (fast sweep mode) for rapid fault location.
Large high-resolution 10-inch capacitive touchscreen display, ergonomic for field use.
Lightweight and portable: Less than ~8.5 lb for the 6 GHz configuration – suitable for one-person deployment.
Built-in PDF/HTML report generation and support for remote tools (Ethernet/WiFi/USB) for efficient documentation of faults.
Modular feature upgrades: optional vector network analyzer (VNA) mode, time-domain reflectometry (TDR), interference finder, IQ capture/streaming, 5G NR FDD/TDD analyzer, GNSS, coverage mapping.
Designed for harsh environments: rugged build, integrated bumpers, suitable for field technicians working on towers, DAS, broadcast sites and outdoor networks.
Supported by Avalon Test Equipment with sales, calibration, rental and service support for field-ready deployment.
