Product details

The Avcom SNG-2500C is a 5 to 2300 MHz spectrum analyzer and carrier monitor built for satellite news gathering and earth stations, and a direct, cost-effective replacement for the discontinued Tektronix 1705A (it fits the Tektronix 1700-series dual mount tub). Uplink, downlink, L-band, IF and 10 MHz reference signals are easy to watch on its 5.7-inch VGA display, with resolution bandwidths from 10 kHz to 1 MHz for small TT&C and data carriers, persistence, averaging and waterfall views for TDMA or noisy carriers, and L.O. offsets that read frequency directly in L, C, Ku or a custom band. Avcom's free Windows remote-control software adds SNMP alarms, markers, cross-polling, automated data acquisition with tolerance checks, e-mail alerts and up to twelve windows at once.

Key features

  • Direct replacement for the Tektronix 1705A
  • 5-2300 MHz, spans up to 1300 MHz

  • L.O. offsets for direct L, C or Ku readout
  • 10 presets and 50 user memories
  • Refresh rates up to 13 per second

Frequently asked questions

Which Avcom spectrum analyzer is right for my site?

Portable PSA models suit installers and field technicians; the SNG and MSNG replace the Tektronix 1705A in trucks and racks; the 1RU EVO-RSA monitors up to 12 inputs remotely; and the SBS2 and SA-MOD boards embed in terminals. Digisat can match the frequency range, inputs and interface to your application.

Does Digisat supply Avcom spectrum analyzers and beacon receivers?

Yes. Digisat supplies the current Avcom line with quote-based pricing, and our engineers can configure inputs, frequency range and interfaces and integrate the analyzer or beacon receiver with your antenna controller and M&C system.
