Spectrum Analyzer NS-14-140/240/280/400

Spectrum Analyzer NS-14- 140/240/280/400 is a bench-top spectrum analyzer family offering value far beyond its price tag. Building on their very high characteristics (e.g. DANL of -153dBm/Hz, RBW from 1Hz to 10Mhz, TOI of +20dBm and industry-leading phase noise of <-125dBc @20kHz offset from 10GHz) these analyzers may become an instrument of choice for budget conscious engineers who cannot afford sacrificing the performance. This family is designed for both R&D and manufacturing environment and targets at versatile applications, from communication market to aerospace and defense areas.
