3550imgwebIt integrates a system for testing radio receivers and transmitters, as well as analyzing cables and radiating systems. With its new, highly sensitive touchscreen, the Aeroflex 3550 tester provides a new experience in RF testing.
Users can easily define their own configuration screens and save them to memory for easy future testing. Weighing only 3.75 kg (almost half the weight of equivalent current equipment) and with an internal battery providing up to 4.5 hours of autonomy, the Aeroflex 3550A is ideal for field testing.
The 3550 model is designed to meet a wide range of radio testing requirements, providing fast and reliable measurements of all radio transmission and reception parameters. Notable features include distance to failure (DTF) measurements on coaxial cables, SWR measurements, and return loss measurements.
It also offers comprehensive transmission testing capabilities. By integrating RF power, RSSI, frequency error, and modulation measurements, comprehensive analysis of AM, FM, P25, DMR (MOTOTRBO), dPMR, NXDN, and ARIB98 radio systems is possible.
In reception, thanks to the integrated multifunction RF generator and SINAD, distortion, and BER meters, precise receiver sensitivity testing is possible in both analog and digital systems.

The level of accuracy and specifications of the Aeroflex 3550 tester were previously only achievable with much more expensive benchtop test equipment.
Typical specifications include:

• Phase noise of -95 dBc/Hz
• RF generator level accuracy of +/-1.5 dB
• FM deviation meter accuracy of 4%
• Spectrum analyzer down to -140 dBm
