The Anritsu MT8820C Radio Communication Analyzer is a multi-format cellular and wireless terminal test platform covering 30 MHz to 2.7 GHz, with optional extension to 3.4 GHz to 3.8 GHz via the MT8820C-018. The platform integrates RF signal generation, RF analysis, and call processing into a single benchtop instrument designed for Tx and Rx characterization of mobile terminals across the major commercial cellular standards.
When configured with the appropriate measurement software and hardware options, a single MT8820C measures the major Tx and Rx characteristics of LTE FDD and TDD, LTE-Advanced FDD and TDD, W-CDMA/HSPA/HSPA Evolution/DC-HSDPA, GSM/GPRS/EGPRS, CDMA2000 1X, PHS/Advanced PHS, and TD-SCDMA/HSPA terminals. Documented applications include transmit power, frequency error, occupied bandwidth, spectrum emission mask, adjacent channel leakage power ratio, modulation accuracy, EVM, code domain power, throughput, BER, BLER, FER, and CQI reporting. End-to-end voice, audio Tx/Rx, video phone, and packet data transfer tests are also supported through the handset connector, AF input/output, and Ethernet interfaces.
ValueTronics International sells, configures, and supports the Anritsu MT8820C from its 20,000 sq ft secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive, Elgin, Illinois. Unlike pass-through brokers and drop-shipping resellers, every unit that leaves our facility has been received, recorded, and handled by our own staff. This in-house workflow lets us confirm option strings, installed measurement hardware, and physical condition before any quote is finalized, and it gives buyers a single accountable U.S.-based point of contact for the lifecycle of the instrument.
Anritsu is a Japanese precision measurement company with roots reaching back to 1895, and its current RF and microwave test portfolio reflects the 1993 acquisition of the U.S. company Wiltron Company. Instruments and product lines originally introduced under the Wiltron name now sit within the Anritsu catalog, and Anritsu has remained an independent T&M manufacturer rather than being absorbed into a larger conglomerate.
