The Anritsu Spectrum Master MS2712E and MS2713E are compact handheld spectrum analyzers built to handle punishing field conditions, allowing the user to monitor, locate, identify, and analyze a broad range of cellular, land mobile radio, Wi-Fi, and broadcast signals. With a rich array of configuration options, these multifunctional handhelds reduce the need to learn and carry multiple instruments when locating and identifying signals over wide frequency ranges.

In the field, the Spectrum Master is used to monitor, locate, identify, and analyze cellular, land mobile radio, Wi-Fi, and broadcast signals across wide frequency spans. Because a single handheld covers such a broad range of signal types, it can take on work that would otherwise be split across several dedicated instruments when characterizing signals on site.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000 sq ft secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive, Elgin, Illinois. Every pre-owned order ships from that facility; used units are inspected and functionally verified in-house against the manufacturer's specifications before they leave, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received.

Compare Other Models in This Series

The Spectrum Master family covers two handheld models, the MS2712E and the MS2713E, sharing a common measurement architecture, display, and configuration-option set. The two models differ in their upper frequency limit, letting a buyer select coverage to match the signals they need to reach in the field.

Both models start at 9 kHz (usable to 0 Hz) and offer the same sensitivity, dynamic range, and phase-noise performance, so the choice between them is driven primarily by required frequency span rather than by differences in core measurement capability.

Each model below links to its own dedicated product page with pre-owned-matched pricing. Select the model whose frequency coverage fits your application, then choose the pre-owned listing for that model to see its specific configuration and price.

Within the family, the MS2712E reaches 9 kHz to 4 GHz and the MS2713E extends the same architecture to 9 kHz to 6 GHz, with both usable down to 0 Hz.

The defining difference between the two models is the upper frequency limit: the MS2712E covers 9 kHz to 4 GHz, while the MS2713E covers 9 kHz to 6 GHz. The comparison table that follows lists this frequency span alongside the shared specifications.

Sensitivity (DANL of -162 dBm in 1 Hz RBW), dynamic range (greater than 102 dB in 1 Hz RBW), phase noise, resolution bandwidth, display, storage, and the available option set are common to both models, so the table differentiates the two chiefly on frequency coverage.

Additional differences in specifications beyond the few shown above are not listed here — see each model's full specifications below.
