Network Deployment
The BAT-2700 module enables field technicians to quickly verify that base stations are operating at peak performance. With user-selectable predefined tests, even novice technicians can quickly perform such previously time-consuming tasks as pinpointing interference problems, optimizing performance and completing base station final checks.
Measure output power, ripple, frequency, spectrum and reflection
To measure the base station output parameters, the field technician hooks up the BAT-2700 to the base station transmitter output. Possible access points include a bidirectional coupler which is often located inside the rack, an attenuated RF output, or a coupler that can be inserted at the hatch between the RF output and antenna. When a coupler is the access point, the technician can also check the match of the RF cable and antenna.
Verify and align the output power
Like a power meter the BAT-2700 presents the transmitted power on the screen. Easy to reach and to align in large letters. Coupling losses and pre-attenuation values are compensated so that the user reads the real power sent to the antenna. A large graphic field indicates the power in relation to the rated power. The range of this field can be enlarged up to a factor of 10 to ease the alignment at the beginning.
