The Anritsu SM5559 is a portable, handheld antenna and cable analyzer engineered for field technicians to perform VSWR, reflection, and cable loss measurements in wireless infrastructure and RF system installations. Built with a synthesized signal source and graphical display capabilities, it delivers accurate site verification and troubleshooting in a compact form factor. The backlit LCD operates effectively in low-light field environments, while internal memory stores measurement data for later analysis and downloading via PC connection.
