Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers
SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS Series
(formerly V6 X series)
USB Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers
The SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS series is Aaronia`s latest generation of high performance real-time spectrum analyzers. Already the entry-level model SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS 250XA-6 is equipped with a real-time bandwidth of 80 MHz (optionally 120 MHz). The top-of-the-line model V6 PLUS 2000XA-6 of this analyzer family already comes with 160 MHz RTBW ex works, which can optionally be extended to 245 MHz.
Description
The SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS is Aronia's latest generation of high-performance real-time spectrum analyzers. With a sweep speed of over 1 THz/s, it sets new standards in the USB compact class. Any number of devices can be cascaded to achieve an even higher real-time bandwidth. Thus, a real-time bandwidth of 1 GHz is already achieved by using only four SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS!
The included RTSA-Suite PRO software is precisely tailored to the powerful and robust hardware and supports the use of multiple SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS. The stackable aluminum housing facilitates the parallel use of multiple units.
The SPECTRAN® V6 PLUS will initially be delivered in three variants: V6-250XA-6, V6-500XA-6 and V6-2000XA-6 - with a RTBW (Real-Time Bandwidth) of up to 245 MHz (via 2 x USB). The analyzer is compatible to all common Aaronia antennas.
