Marconi Instruments 2945A Communications Service Monitor covering 400 kHz to 1.05 GHz. Calibration expired March 2024; self-test passes. A versatile multi-instrument platform suitable for field servicing and bench use on radio and two-way communication equipment.
What's typically included:
• AC supply lead
The Aeroflex / IFR / Marconi 2945A is a portable Communications Service Monitor designed for production, routine, and maintenance testing of radio transmitters, receivers, and two-way radio communication equipment. It is the lightest, most rugged service monitor in its class, featuring a full-performance spectrum analyser as standard.
The 2945A consolidates the functionality of multiple instruments into a single portable unit, including: RF generator, two audio generators, specialised tones generator, RF power meter, modulation meter, RF counter, AF counter, AF voltmeter, distortion meter, digital storage oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, and monitoring receiver.
Key Features:
• Full duplex operation for simultaneous Tx and Rx testing
• Full-span spectrum analyser with tracking generator and Look and Listen mode
• Automatic harmonic analysis function
• 50 kHz digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) with anti-aliasing
• DTMF and DCS tone generation and decoding
• POCSAG off-air decoding (optional)
• RS-232 interface with screen capture to PC
• GPIB remote control interface
• MI-BASIC interpreter for custom automated test sequences
• PC card slot for storage of test setups, results, and spectrum data
• Operates from AC mains or external 11–32 V DC supply
• Weight under 12 kg for portability to remote sites
Specifications:
Output Frequency Range: 400 kHz to 1.05 GHz
Input Frequency Range (Spectrum Analyser / Modulation Monitor): 100 kHz to 1.05 GHz
Frequency Resolution: 10 Hz
Spectrum Analyser Resolution: 1 kHz
Power Measurement: Up to 150 W (N-Type, limited periods)
Level Accuracy: ±2 dB at all levels above -127 dBm
Duplex Operation: Full duplex (simultaneous Tx/Rx)
Oscilloscope Bandwidth: 50 kHz DSO
AF Bit Rates (POCSAG): 400 to 4800 bit/s
Power Supply: AC mains; external DC 11–32 V
Weight: Under 12 kg (approx. 25 lb)
Interfaces: RS-232, GPIB (IEEE-488), parallel printer port
