“ RAN (Radio Access Network) revenues are projected to reach $0.2 Trillion over the 2019 to 2024 forecast period to accommodate the surging demand for 5G, according to Dell’Oro Group. These new mobile RAN installations are expected to drive a corresponding surge in cell sites along with increasing demand for cellular installations and maintenance testing services. “
Cable and Antenna Analyzers are among the most common test tools used to commission a tower. These tools offer measurement capabilities including precision return loss/VSWR, cable loss and distance-to-fault (DTF) measurements.
Spectrum analyzers measure the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of the instrument. The primary use is to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals.
Optical and Fiber Test Tools include tools used to troubleshoot and deploy optical networks. Common optical and fiber test tools include optical time-domain reflectometers (OTDR), visual fault locators, protocol analyzers to decode communication protocols, and fiber cleaning tools.
Fiber Fusion Splicers are used to join two ends of the optical fiber or ribbon together in such a way that light passing is not scattered or reflected back by the splice.
Scanning receivers are precision network testing tools. Designed for drive testing, walk testing, troubleshooting, and monitoring of cellular, WiFi, IoT, and critical communications networks worldwide, they provide the insights you need to improve coverage and quality of service throughout the wireless network lifecycle.
PIM Analyzers are used to detect and locate sources of passive intermodulation or PIM. PIM is a growing issue for cellular networks, and PIM analysis is a requirement among the major carriers operating in the FDD 4G frequency bands.
Anritsu provides accurate, reliable, and easy-to-use inline components to continually verify signal strength, power, and throughput.
Antenna Alignment Tools are used to position and align panel antennas and point-to-point microwave systems with high precision, using GPS technology.
