The Base Station & Air Interface Test Module
(BAT)
The BAT Module is a handheld RF spectrum meter based on
the Acterna TestPad 2000
TM
platform. Base stations can be
tested while in operation, without any shut down. You can test a
base station either at its RF output connector or over the air
interface. Simple use and a small size make testing easier than
ever.
