RSA5000B
Please note: The RSA5000 Series products on this page are no longer offered for sale by Tektronix. Tektronix recommends that you consider the RSA7100B for performing high bandwidth (up to 800 MHz), lower phase noise measurements or consider the USB RSA (500, 600, or 306B) for portable field ruggedized real time spectrum analysis.
Visualize and characterize devices and components with precision and accuracy using the powerful, industry leading RSA5000B Real Time Spectrum Analyzer. This advanced spectrum analyzer makes high performance and sensitivity measurements for spurious signals much faster than other spectrum analyzers, so you can conduct conventional measurements and troubleshoot quickly, accurately and successfully.
