MODEL SA-1700EX (25 - 1700 MHz), MODEL SA-1700EXP (25 - 1700 MHz)
ONE UNIT covers the entire 25-6000 MHz range!
Easy to operate and field ready for first-time, occasional and experienced users.
Suitable for use in Worldwide Cellular and PCS/DCS; supporting
measurement of CDMA, GSM,TDMA and AMPS modulation schemes.
Other applications include 3G, Broadcast, Government, Tactical Military, Microwave,
Paging, Public Safety, Trunking, WLAN and WLL, and TETRA (see model matrix).

WIth a single download you can view as Distance to Fault or Measurement
Match-no need to store two traces.
FDR (Frequency Domain Relectrometry) measurement method results in a
highly reliable assessment of the health of critical components in your
system; ultimately providing a heads-up before a failure occurs.
Fault location or DTF mode indicates VSWR or Return Loss levels at each
point along the cable and antenna system length.
Cable Loss function measures insertion loss of the cable system over a
given frequency range.

DIGITAL POWER METER OPTION
Digital Power Meter option allows accurate power readings for
digital or analog systems including those with CDMA, GSM, TDMA
or AMPS modulation. Operators of analog and digital two-way radio
systems, including tactical military users, will benefit as well.
Compatible with the Model 5010B Directional Power Sensor to
display forward and reflected power as well as VSWR and
Return Loss, DPM elements range from 2 MHz - 2700 MHz.
Compatible with the Model 5011 Terminating Power Sensor
to measure power directly or via a coupled test port from
40 MHz - 4000 MHz.
Compatible with the Model 5012 Wideband Power Sensor to
display forward and reflected power 350 MHz - 4000 MHz.
Digital Power Meter option included with SA-6000EX,
SA-2500EX and SA-1700EXP.

RF Signal Samplers
The Model 4273 (1.5 to 35 MHz, 5 kW max.) and Model 4275 (20 to 1000 MHz, 1 kW max.)
are stand-alone, wide-range THRULINE RF coupling probes for spectrum analysis, RF signal observation on a
scope, or frequency counting and control. They feature very low VSWR throughout a broad frequency and attenuation range. Insertion loss is a negligible 0.1 dB. Both Models produce an unrectified sample at the BNC port that is
adjustable. Once adjusted, the setting can be locked in place. The main power connectors are Bird QC type.

Many TERMALINE load resistors, attenuators and absorption wattmeters, as well as THRULINE wattmeters, employ our patented QC-type
Quick-Change RF Connectors. These products may be ordered with the connector(s) most convenient for use with your equipment. Many
customers order additional connectors to avoid using performance robbing adapters. QC Connectors are easily changed in the field by removing
and replacing four screws. Because of the wide variety of connectors and possible applications, electrical specifications for QC-equipped
products are quoted with the standard connectors normally supplied with the equipment.
SQC Connectors, (used with the 4110 Series, 4304 Wattmeter, 8072-1, 8431 Load Resistors, etc.) are shown below.

Technical Data
When a Model APM-16, 43, 4431, 4314B or 4391A is used to match a load to a transmitter and a good match is obtained,
removing the instrument will not cause any change in the conditions, since a good 50 ohm load can be placed at the end
of a 50 ohm transmission line of any length without altering conditions at the transmitter.
What happens when the load is not well matched, as with an antenna with a VSWR of 1.5 or 2.0? Since the length of line between
a mismatched load and the source transforms the impedance of the load as seen at the source, line length now becomes critical.
If the adjustments for maximum power transfer were made with the Model 43 in place, removing it shortens the line by four inches,
plus two connectors. This still is no cause for concern at low frequencies where four to five inches is a small fraction of a wavelength.
At higher frequencies; e.g., above 100 MHz, power output and frequency of the source may be affected.
It is a principle of transmission line theory that the impedance is identical on either side of 12 wavelengths. In order to duplicate
the conditions in your transmission line with the above Model wattmeters either in or out of the line, it is only necessary to insert
or remove one or more 12 wavelengths. This is easily done by making up a length of cable which, when added to the THRULINE,
equals one or more 12 wavelengths at the frequency of measurement. If more than one frequency is involved, one cable is
needed for each frequency.
