Product overview
The R&S®ZVH is a rugged, light handheld cable and antenna analyzer built for more efficiency in the field. Its low weight and simple operation make it a natural companion for engineers installing and maintaining antenna systems outdoors. The splash-proof housing and the handle on top let the instrument hang from a tower or a rack for hands-free work, with no extra accessory needed. A built-in wizard lets a measurement procedure be prepared before leaving the office, with photographs and instructions embedded to guide the technician on site, which cuts mistakes and speeds the job. Keycodes turn it into a two-port vector network analyzer (R&S®ZVH-K42) or add spectrum analysis (R&S®ZVH-K1), making it a genuinely all-round field instrument.
Key features
- Coverage from 100 kHz to 3.6 GHz (ZVH4) or 8 GHz (ZVH8), which fits field measurements on a wide range of wireless systems
- 100 dB (typ.) dynamic range for transmission measurements, for accurate cable loss and antenna match assessment
- Built-in wizard: prepare the measurement procedure in advance and embed photographs and instructions, which keeps setup errors off the tower
- Keycode upgrades: R&S®ZVH-K42 adds two-port vector network analysis (VNA), R&S®ZVH-K1 adds spectrum analysis
- Ergonomic handle on top, so the instrument can hang from a tower or rack and leave both hands free
- Splash-proof, rugged housing for use in the field
- Connect over USB or LAN to the free R&S®InstrumentView PC software for remote control, measurement presets and report generation
- The free R&S®MobileView app for phones and tablets gives wireless remote control and file transfer through a wireless router
Typical applications
- Antenna system installation and maintenance: cable and antenna measurements and acceptance tests when building base stations (BTS), adding network capacity or rolling out new technology
- Aerospace and defense: field checks of cable integrity and antenna performance on aviation communications, radar systems and military radios
- Antenna test for MIMO and active beamforming: post-installation verification measurements on 5G NR base stations and phased array antenna systems
- Passive network test in distributed antenna systems (DAS): loss and reflection measurements on the cables, power dividers and couplers of an in-building coverage system
