RSA Series Overview 

 

RSA series is a new generation of cost-efficient real-time spectrum analyzer with high 

performance. With superb performance specifications and the clear user interface, 

the RSA series allows you to operate it through various ways, such as pressing keys 

on the front panel, using the touch screen, connecting the mouse and the keyboard. 

Remote communication interfaces are also available. The instrument can be widely 

used in education science, corporate R&D, industrial production, and other fields.
