EXFO last week introduced the 5GPro Spectrum Analyzer, the only modular, field-focused radio frequency (RF) testing solution.
EXFO said the solution provides accurate visibility into 4G/LTE and 5G NR environments with the ability to analyze FR1(sub-6 GHz) and FR2 (mmWave) bands using a single, field-upgradeable solution.
The 5GPro Spectrum Analyzer is a field-tech optimized, scalable RF spectrum analyzer. It strikes the right balance between functionality and portability in a compact design that delivers accurate RF over-the-air (OTA) measurements. Designed with simplicity in mind it enables field techs and contractors to easily identify and resolve issues and close out jobs faster, said the company.
EXFO's 5GPro Spectrum Analyzer is available on the FTB 5GPro test kit for a complete all-in-one solution used to validate 4G and 5G networks. In addition to RF testing, the FTB 5GPro supports fiber inspection and characterization, CPRI/eCPRI/O-RAN, RF spectrum analysis over CPRI, Ethernet (up to 100G) plus timing and synchronization.
This comprehensive solution reduces the number of devices field technicians need to carry, speeding up jobs and reducing overall total cost of ownership for operators and contractors. Key features and benefits of the 5GPro Spectrum Analyzer: first field-upgradeable RF testing solution: no downtime due to factory upgrades industry’s only modular RF testing solution: option to start with FR1 and add FR2 as requirements change support for real-time spectrum analysis (RTSA) bandwidth up to 100 MHz, 5G NR demodulation and beamforming analysis, plus TDD and LTE signal analysis saves time by simplifying RF testing with a smart UX-optimized GUI and patent-pending intelligent peak detection seamless cloud integration for centralized workflow management and results sharing.
