# Anritsu MS2717A 7.1 GHz Economy Spectrum Analyzer (Pre-Owned) # Anritsu MS2717A 7.1 GHz Economy Spectrum Analyzer (Pre-Owned) ## Key Features At A Glance - Frequency coverage from 100 kHz to 7.1 GHz with a standard built-in preamplifier - Ethernet 10/100 Base-T and USB 2.0 connectivity; SCPI remote programming via Ethernet - 100 dB dynamic range with +29 dBm third order intercept for linear component measurements - DANL of –150 dBm (preamp on) and –126 dBm (preamp off) at RBW = 10 Hz - Typical –110 dBc/Hz SSB phase noise at 10 kHz offset up to 6 GHz - 8 MHz capture bandwidth, True RMS detection, and 65 dB attenuation range in 5 dB steps - Optional WCDMA/HSDPA and WCDMA demodulation measurements (field options, require Option 009) - 20 W (+43 dBm) input protection with +30 dBm maximum continuous input The Anritsu MS2717A is an economy-class spectrum analyzer covering 100 kHz to 7.1 GHz. It delivers spectrum analysis with a standard built-in preamplifier, a 100 dB dynamic range, and WCDMA signal analysis capability, packaged in an ergonomically designed instrument intended to lower the cost of testing while retaining the performance engineers expect from the category. A spectrum analyzer displays the amplitude of signals across a frequency range, letting an engineer characterize signal levels, harmonics, and modulation quality in the frequency domain. The MS2717A is positioned for spectrum analysis of wireless components in the physical layer of communication systems: its phase noise performance measures wireless local oscillators and synthesizers, its dynamic range supports linear measurements of wireless components, and its 8 MHz capture bandwidth supports optional WCDMA/HSDPA and WCDMA demodulator measurements for testing Node-B transmitters. It is designed for use in manufacturing, R&D, and general purpose testing. ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000 sq ft secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every used unit is inspected and functionally verified in-house against the manufacturer's specifications before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received. That combination lets buyers source instruments like the MS2717A with confidence in both availability and verified condition. ## Accessories Supplied - 10580-00159 Anritsu User's Guide, Model MS2717A - 2300-498 CD ROM containing Master Software Tools - 2000-1360 USB A-mini B cable - 2000-1371 RJ45 Ethernet Cable - 2000-1358 64 MB Compact Flash - Certificate of Calibration and Conformance ## Product Core & Specifications Specification Value Frequency Frequency Range 100 kHz to 7.1 GHz Frequency Span 10 Hz to 7.1 GHz plus 0 Hz (zero span) Tuning Resolution 1 Hz Typical Dynamic Range (Offset = 100 kHz / 15 MHz, RBW = 10 Hz) 900 MHz 100 dB / 103 dB 1900 MHz 100 dB / 104 dB 2300 MHz 100 dB / 104 dB 2500 MHz 97 dB / 103 dB 2700 MHz 98 dB / 104 dB 3500 MHz 99 dB / 101 dB 5800 MHz 94 dB / 100 dB Third Order Intercept, Typical (Offset = 100 kHz) 50 MHz to 300 MHz \>8 dBm \>300 MHz to 2.2 GHz \>10 dBm \>2.2 to 2.8 GHz \>15 dBm \>2.8 to 4.0 GHz \>10 dBm \>4.0 to 7.1 GHz \>13 dBm Typical TOI for Popular Frequencies (Offset = 100 kHz / 15 MHz) 900 MHz 13 dBm / 18 dBm 1900 MHz 17 dBm / 24 dBm 2300 MHz 20 dBm / 27 dBm 2500 MHz 20 dBm / 29 dBm 2700 MHz 20 dBm / 30 dBm 3500 MHz 16 dBm / 20 dBm 5800 MHz 13 dBm / 23 dBm DANL, Preamplifier On (RBW = 10 Hz, Typical / Max) 10 MHz to 1.0 GHz –155 dBm / –151 dBm \>1.0 to 2.2 GHz –152 dBm / –149 dBm \>2.2 to 2.8 GHz –147 dBm / –143 dBm \>2.8 to 4.0 GHz –150 dBm / –149 dBm \>4.0 to 6.5 GHz –150 dBm / –144 dBm \>6.5 to 7.1 GHz –149 dBm / –144 dBm DANL, Preamplifier Off (RBW = 10 Hz, Typical / Max) 10 MHz to 1.0 GHz –135 dBm / –127 dBm \>1.0 GHz to 2.2 GHz –130 dBm / –123 dBm \>2.2 to 2.8 GHz –125 dBm / –116 dBm \>2.8 to 4.0 GHz –130 dBm / –126 dBm \>4.0 to 6.5 GHz –127 dBm / –117 dBm \>6.5 to 7.1 GHz –121 dBm / –117 dBm Noise Figure (Typical, 0 dB attenuation, 23ºC, preamplifier on) 10 MHz to 1.0 GHz 9 dB \>1.0 to 2.2 GHz 12 dB \>2.2 to 2.8 GHz 17 dB \>2.8 to 4.0 GHz 14 dB \>4.0 to 6.5 GHz 14 dB \>6.5 to 7.1 GHz 15 dB Second Harmonic Distortion (0 dB input attenuation, –30 dBm input) 50 MHz to 750 MHz –50 dBc \>750 MHz to 1.05 GHz –40 dBc \>1.05 to 1.4 GHz –50 dBc \>1.4 to 2 GHz –70 dBc \>2 GHz –80 dBc Amplitude Maximum Continuous Input (≥10 dB attenuation) +30 dBm Input Damage Level (≥10 dB attenuation) \>+43 dBm, ± 50 Vdc Input Damage Level (<10 dB attenuation) \>+23 dBm, ± 50 Vdc ESD Damage Level (≥10 dB attenuation) \>10 kV Amplitude Accuracy (20°C to 30°C) Overall Amplitude Accuracy (95%), 0 dBm to –50 dBm, preamplifier off, 10 dB attenuation ±0.9 dB <3 GHz; ±1.25 dB <7.1 GHz Amplitude Accuracy at 50 MHz ±0.8 dB Frequency Flatness ±0.5 dB <3 GHz; ±1.0 dB <7.1 GHz Phase Noise at 800 MHz (Guaranteed / Typical SSB <6 GHz) 10 kHz offset <–100 dBc/Hz / –110 dBc/Hz 20 kHz offset <–100 dBc/Hz / –110 dBc/Hz 30 kHz offset <–100 dBc/Hz / –110 dBc/Hz 100 kHz offset <–102 dBc/Hz / –112 dBc/Hz Time Base Stability Aging < ±1 x 10-6/yr or 1 ppm/yr Accuracy (25º C ± 25º C), Standard < ±1 x 10-6/yr or 1 ppm/yr + long term drift Accuracy (25º C ± 25º C), Option 9 < ±0.3 x 10-6/yr or 0.3 ppm/yr + long term drift Span Accuracy Same as frequency reference accuracy Amplitude / Bandwidth Settings Attenuator Range 0 to 65 dB Attenuator Resolution 5 dB steps Measurement Range DANL to +30 dBm Display Range 1 to 15 dB/div in 1 dB steps, ten divisions displayed Resolution Bandwidth (–3 dB width) 10 Hz to 3 MHz Resolution Bandwidth steps 1-3 sequence ±10% Video Bandwidth (–3 dB) 1 Hz to 3 MHz Video Bandwidth steps 1-3 sequence Demodulation Bandwidth 8 MHz Sweep Times Sweep Time Minimum 200 ms, adjustable to 10 µs in zero span Sweep Time Accuracy ±2% in zero span Sweep Trigger Free run, Single, Video, External Sweep Span Full span, zero span, and span up/span down 6 GHz span (RBW 3 MHz, VBW 1 MHz) 1.1 secs 200 MHz span (RBW 300 kHz, VBW 100 kHz) 200 ms 10 MHz span (RBW 30 kHz, VBW 10 kHz) 200 ms 1 MHz span (RBW 3 kHz, VBW 1 kHz) 90 ms 200 kHz span (RBW 3 Hz, VBW 3 MHz) 99 ms 2.2 kHz span (RBW 10 Hz, VBW 3 Hz) 149 ms Spurious Input-Related Spurious (–30 dBm input, 0 dB attenuation) –60 dBc max Residual Spurious, Preamplifier Off (100 kHz to 3.2 GHz) –90 dBm max Residual Spurious, Preamplifier Off (>3.2 GHz to 7.1 GHz) –84 dBm max Residual Spurious, Preamplifier On (100 kHz to 7.1 GHz) –100 dBm max General Detection Peak, Negative, Sample, RMS Displayed Traces Three traces with trace overlay; one trace is always live data, two traces can be either stored data or mathematically manipulated traces Memory Standard 64 MB Compact Flash card, greater than 1000 traces and 1000 setups > **Important:** Maximum continuous input: +30 dBm (≥10 dB attenuation).
