The Rohde & Schwarz FSH6 is a handheld spectrum analyzer that operates from 100 kHz to 6 GHz, combining spectrum analysis, scalar network analysis, vector measurement, and cable diagnostics into a single field-deployable instrument. Battery-powered and designed for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of RF systems, it delivers dynamic range up to 90 dB and typical noise floor of -135 dBm with 100 Hz resolution bandwidth. The optional tracking generator extends capabilities to include distance-to-fault measurements, VSWR characterization, and one-port cable loss analysis across the full 5 MHz to 6 GHz band.
