Enhanced Productivity
Used in conjunction with the NetTek ®
Analyzer, the NetGuide software solution
enables creation of customized procedures
that allow for consistent testing among
technicians. Be assured of proper meas-
urement configuration by defining step-by-
step instructions for the user. Guarantee
that all tests are executed to company
standards. Share expert knowledge
among your technicians to minimize
network down time.
Touch Screen
The Windows CE interface is combined
with a rugged touch screen. User controls
and buttons only appear on the screen
when they are needed, making measure-
ments simpler to perform. The screen is
operated by pressure, meaning that even
a gloved finger can reliably operate the
instrument in cold weather.
Field Rugged
The NetTek analyzer is designed to with-
stand day to day abuse wherever testing
is required. The NetTek analyzer and each
module feature a magnesium alloy shell,
bonded with a rubber skin for maximum
impact resistance and rigidity. All ports
feature a sealed rubber cover. The unit
may be operated and stored over a wide
temperature range.
The NetTek analyzer design needs no fan
or ventilation ports, maximizing resistance
to dirt and dust.
PC Connectivity
The NetTek analyzer is designed to easily
work with the PCs required for maintaining
today’s networks. The instrument includes
as standard two PC card slots, Ethernet
port, RS-232 port and USB slots. A USB
floppy disk drive or PCMCIA memory
card can be added as an option. The
NetTek can also be controlled remotely
using the optional Virtual CE interface.
The platform includes support for vxHpc
terminal emulator software. Further, all
of these devices are Windows CE
compatible – meaning data and test
results can be shared quickly with a
PC operating Windows.
Optional GPS Receiver
In addition to location and time information,
this optional GPS receiver provides an
independent external frequency reference
for checking BTS frequency accuracy.
With its 5 V output and satellite signal
strength graph, this option can be used
as a go/no-go tester for most external
GPS antennas.
The Modules and the Platform
The Tektronix NetTek platform includes
the display, power supply, CPU and
battery compartments. Measurement
modules can then be attached to the back.
Up to four modules can be attached at
once. A variety of modules and options
allows you to tailor the instrument to
service the standards and interfaces in
use in your network.
The modular design also means that the
instrument can easily be upgraded. New
measurements or standards can be
added with software upgrades or with
additional modules.
The NetTek platform today supports not
only the YBT250 test module for spectrum
and base station testing, but also the
YBA250 module for antenna and trans-
mission line analysis and the YBT1 for
T1 testing.
