New product from Aeroflex

A high-performance, cost-effective radio test system for analog and digital radio stations. The 8800 complex is equipped with the largest color display in the industry and has a new hybrid, portable design that provides desktop applications for testing, as well as the possibility of conducting tests in the field, thanks to the light weight, strength of the case and the internal battery.

Rationality of the choice of the radio measuring complex Aeroflex 8800:

The market for radio test systems is rapidly moving from analog to digital LMR technologies, especially due to the recent emergence of new, low-cost digital LMR standards, for example, DMR, NXDN™, and dPMR. While TETRA and P25 technologies are reaching a high level of development in the market, these new digital LMR standards are filling the market and fully creating significant opportunities for radio test systems. Usually, for customers using these new digital systems, the cost is of great importance, respectively, it also means that their funds and opportunities when buying a radio measuring system are limited. The 8800 complex is an affordable, multifunctional, flexible radio measuring system to attract a rapidly growing customer base.

Innovative user interface

The complex is designed to conduct the most effective tests. The 8800 complex is equipped with a large, easy-to-read, color touch display that allows you to simultaneously see various meters and analysis functions. The 8800 complex also has a well-known "Fast Stack" function, which accelerates access to meters and analysis functions by setting their order, after which they can be accessed instantly at the touch of a button. Innovative features such as user-configurable presets and frequency tables, as well as meters with color graphic indicators to indicate the test results "passed/failed" (Pass/Fail) allow you to test analog and digital radio stations very quickly by transmitting and receiving tests at various frequencies in just seconds.
