Class-leading RF performance engineered in Germany – extraordinarily low noise floor and high maximum input power combine to provide for the best dynamic range in its class. Resolution bandwidth settings to 1 Hz resolve finer spectral details than any other spectrum analyzer in this class.

See more details with high resolution – the R&S FPC1000 features the largest and most detailed display in its class at 10.1″, WXGA (1366 × 768 pixel) resolution. The display is 26% larger and has a 160% higher resolution than other instruments.

Investment protection

Fully frequency-upgradeable
Buy only what is needed. The R&S FPC1000 is futureviable thanks to the unique Rohde & Schwarz upgrade path. The base unit covers a frequency range from 5 kHz to 1 GHz, with keycode-activated upgrades available. Effortlessly step up to higher frequency applications with upgrades to 2 GHz or even 3 GHz without additional calibration.

100 % software-upgradeable
Buy as needed. Shipping instruments for feature upgrade is inconvenient for rack-integrated measurement setups. The R&S FPC1000 can be upgraded by simply entering a software keycode. All options are in place and can be enabled by the user. Upgrade effortlessly and conveniently.

No downtime – instant option availability
Buy when needed. The unique Rohde & Schwarz upgrade path eliminates the need for additional upgrade calibration. Avoid delays and downtime and instantly access additionally required functionality.
 

Unexpected RF performance

Low noise floor
High sensitivity is critical in many applications, e.g. when measuring extremely weak signals. The R&S FPC1000 provides an extraordinarily low noise floor of -150 dBm (typ.). Add the optional R&S FPC1000-B22 preamplifier to increase sensitivity even further down to -165 dBm (typ.).

High max. input power
Measure 10 times more power with the R&S FPC1000. Most entry level spectrum analyzers can measure up to +20 dBm (100 mW). The R&S FPC1000 is capable of measuring high power signals of up to +30 dBm (1 W). The combination of low noise floor and high max. input power provides exceptionally wide measurement dynamic range in the R&S FPC1000.
 

High resolution

160 % higher display resolution
Higher resolution. The WXGA panel (1366 × 768 pixel) exceeds the VGA resolution (640 × 480 pixel) that had been standard among entry level spectrum analyzers by 160 %. Inspect measured signals in unprecedented clarity and razor-sharp detail.

26 % larger display
See more. The R&S FPC1000 has the largest display of any entry level spectrum analyzer. The new 26 cm (10.1″) panel is 26 % larger than the display of other entry class spectrum analyzers (20 cm or 8″). The combination of high display resolution and a large display creates extraordinary user experience. Examine more measured signal on the instrument screen.

1 Hz resolution bandwidth
More details. The quality of RF measurements strongly depends on suitable resolution bandwidth settings. Finer resolution bandwidth means more spectral details. The R&S FPC1000 is the only entry level spectrum analyzer with resolution bandwidth settings down to 1 Hz. Identify RF signal details with class-unprecedented measurement frequency resolution. Innovate with a large, high-resolution display and fine resolution bandwidth. Experience unexpected performance in the entry class.
 

The high dynamic range of the R&S FPC1000 fully utilizes the 10.1″ WXGA display.
