The Anritsu MS2724B Spectrum Master is a high-performance, lightweight handheld spectrum analyzer designed for analyzing wireless LAN and cellular signals, including 802.11a, 3G, ultra-wideband, and patient monitoring systems. Supporting applications up to 20 GHz, it combines the flexibility of a field-portable instrument with benchtop-grade accuracy. It features standard quasi-peak detection, CISPR resolution bandwidths, and a highly daylight-readable color display.
