What is a combination analyzer? / Information on options
This FieldFox model is referred to as a combination analyzer, which is a device with multiple testing capabilities.
- Combination analyzer (combo) = Cable and antenna tester (CAT) + Vector network analyzer (VNA) + Spectrum analyzer (SA)
Vector network analysis and spectrum analysis are available with software options.
There are over 30 optional features available, enabling users to customize this instrument to their specific application. For detailed information regarding options, please view this document beginning on page 4.
Further information on software features can also be viewed in the FieldFox software guide.
