RSSBVS To Launch Dual-Band Transmitter At WiMAX World
August 13, 2008
Metuchen, NJ. - Berkeley Varitronics Systems, Inc, continues to Clarify RF by releasing the latest reptile in the growing family of stimulus transmitters used around the globe for drive-study analysis.
The engineering team at Berkeley will showcase the Tortoise, a high power stimulus transmitter containing ultra-clean, Class A amplifiers for simultaneous, dual-band independent transmissions from one portable unit. Quad cooling fans keep Tortoise cool, while the internal dual amplifiers simultaneously transmit up to 45 watts each allowing for more efficient drive-studies to be conducted within two distinct bands. Tortoise is easily controlled directly from the unit's top panel or through the ethernet, USB or RS-232 ports using the supplied remote control PC software. The unit has built-in over-voltage protection, forward and reverse power measurement as well as internal and external temperature measurements. Unique to the Tortoise will be an optional WiMAX modulator allowing users to simulate a WiMAX network when used in conjunction with the YellowFin WiMAX Analyzer.
"Like a live tortoise which can live up to 150 years, Berkeley's Tortoise is designed for ruggedness and longevity." says Scott Schober, President/CEO.
