The TANDBERG TT7000 is a multifunction RF test instrument integrating frequency counter, power meter, signal generator, RF divider, and optional prescaler into a single compact unit. Designed for engineers requiring precise microwave measurements and signal generation, it operates as a standalone device or via USB control from a PC, with SCPI command support and dedicated Windows GUI applications for each measurement mode.
