Bird RailHawk RH-RR-KIT Railway RF Cable & Antenna Analyzer Kit
The RailHawk Railway RF Cable and Antenna Analyzer Kit (model RH-RR-KIT), introduced by Bird Company, is a high-performance solution specifically tailored for ensuring seamless communication networks within the railway industry. Engineered to support technicians in maintaining top-notch service networks and averting downtime and unnecessary expenses, this kit streamlines the optimization of communication infrastructure by eschewing traditional trial-and-error methods. The RailHawk Cable and Antenna Analyzer fortifies system reliability and guarantees effective maintenance and management of communication protocols within railway environments, empowering both novices and seasoned professionals to swiftly identify and rectify potential issues before they escalate into costly repairs.The RailHawk Railway RF Testing Kit integrates the trusted features of the SiteHawk handheld analyzer with plug-and-play power sensors that cater to UHF analog/digital radio systems, GSM-R/LTE-R voice/data systems. All essential components are housed in a rugged, portable carrying case for ease of transportation.
RailHawk®Key Features:
- Tests RF cables and antennas at their operational frequencies instead of DC, where problems might be masked.
- Locates source issues in RF cables, connectors, and antennas.
- FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry) pinpoints faults accurately during operation, unlike other methods that may mask potential failures in critical system components.
- Distance to Fault (DTF) mode graphs VSWR or Return Loss values at each distance point along the cable and antenna system length.
- Measures insertion loss across a specific frequency range for cable systems using the Cable Loss function.
- Includes an OTG USB communication port for connecting to Bird power sensors, storage devices, and battery charging.
