Rohde & Schwarz brings its RF expertise to the entry class with the new R&S FPC1000 spectrum analyzer
Rohde & Schwarz introduces the R&S FPC1000, a new entry class spectrum analyzer with outstanding quality and innovative features, engineered in Germany. It features a flexible keycode upgrade concept, solid RF performance, the largest and highest-resolution display in this class as well as integrated Wi-Fi for wireless remote control via mobile apps.
Outstanding quality and innovation does not have to come with a high price tag. The R&S FPC1000 spectrum analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz delivers unexpected performance at a budget-friendly price. Engineered in Germany and designed to the same quality standards as high-end Rohde & Schwarz instruments, it provides solid RF performance and a future-ready, software-upgradeable feature set. The R&S FPC1000 has the largest high-resolution display in its class plus remote control options via smart wireless mobile apps or PC software. These characteristics make it excel in basic research, production, service and educational applications that require spectrum analysis.
Investment protection
The base model of the R&S FPC1000 covers a frequency range from 5 kHz to 1 GHz, which can be expanded to 2 GHz or 3 GHz via software upgrades – a new feature in this instrument class. Upgrades can be purchased as needed and are available as soon as the keycode is entered. Recalibration is not required.
Unexpected RF performance
A critical characteristic when measuring extremely weak signals is high sensitivity. The R&S FPC1000 provides a low noise floor level of –150 dBm (typ), which can be further extended to –165 dBm (typ) with an optional, keycode-activated preamplifier. Its high max. input power allows users to measure RF signals up to +30 dBm (1 W), 10 times more power than offered by other entry class spectrum analyzers. The combination of low noise floor and high max. input power results in an exceptionally wide measurement dynamic range.
High resolution
The R&S FPC1000 offers the best measurement resolution in its class with 1 Hz RBW and a 10.1” (26 cm) display that is 26 percent larger with a 2.6 times higher display resolution. This high measurement and display resolution allows signals to be measured in razor-sharp detail.
Easy virtual control
Virtual control enables easy remote control and measurement. The R&S FPC1000 supports optional Wi-Fi connectivity in addition to wired Ethernet. With R&S InstrumentView for Microsoft© Windows and the iOS/Android App based R&S MobileView platforms, measurements can be performed anywhere, anytime.
Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate the R&S FPC1000 to the public for the first time at the embedded world 2017 international trade fair in Nuremberg, Germany, from March 14 to 16, 2017.
The R&S FPC1000 will be available from Rohde & Schwarz and selected distribution channel partners as of March 14, 2017.
