DESCRIPTION:
The SK-4500-TC SiteHawk is engineered for rugged field use and delivers fast, repeatable diagnostics across a broad RF band. With Distance-to-Fault (DTF) and Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) capabilities, it precisely identifies and locates cable or connector issues along transmission lines, reducing troubleshooting time and preventing unnecessary component swaps. Its intuitive user interface on a 5.5 720 p touchscreen, USB-C connectivity, and rechargeable battery support efficient operation in diverse environments. The analyzer also supports storage of thousands of traces and setups for reporting and trend analysis.
Key Features:
Frequency Coverage: 1 MHz to 4.5 GHz — broad range for cellular, microwave, and RF communication diagnostics.
Fault Location: DTF and FDR modes for precise identification of cable or antenna faults.
Measurements: VSWR, return loss (0 to -60 dB), cable loss (0 to 30 dB), and reflect amplitude.
Display: 5.5 720p touchscreen for real-time trace viewing and setup.
Portability: Rechargeable lithium-ion battery with ~10 hours usage.
Connectivity: USB-C for data transfer, power sensor linkage, and battery charging.
Storage: Internal memory for thousands of traces and configurations.
