RailHawk Railway RF Cable & Antenna Analyser
Ensure uninterrupted communication networks in the railway industry with Bird’s innovative Railway RF Cable & Antenna Analyzer solution. Our comprehensive kit empowers technicians to maintain high-quality service networks, avoiding downtime and unnecessary expenses. Say goodbye to trial and error and optimize your communication infrastructure with ease.
Features
- Test RF cables & antennas at the frequency of operation, not at DC where problems are masked.
- Locate RF cable, connector & antenna problems at the source.
- FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry) pinpoints faults at the frequency of operation, unlike other measurement techniques which can mask pending failures of critical system components.
- Distance to Fault (DTF) mode can plot VSWR or Return Loss levels at each distance point along the cable and antenna system length.
- Cable Loss function measures insertion loss of the cable system over a given frequency range.
- OTG USB communication port for connection to Bird power sensors, storage devices and battery charging.
