SK-6000-TC, 1 MHz - 6 GHz

SiteHawk RF Cable and Antenna Analyzer

No More Swapnostics!

Get the most out of your communication networks with the Bird SiteHawk series. Our powerful device offers critical coverage and a wide frequency range from 1 MHz to 6000 MHz, ensuring you have the ability to find any discrepancies in your cables and connectors.

With Bird's DTF (Distance to Fault) mode, SK-6000-TC can identify the exact location of any fault quickly and accurately, saving time and money! Take control of your networks today with SiteHawk.

Features

• Test RF cables and antennas at the frequency of operation.
• Locate RF cable, connector and antenna problems at the source.
• FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry) 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 plots 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.
