Applied Instruments 5112 - Multi-Carrier RF Signal Generator

The 5112 is a portable RF signal generator, available in configurations with one carrier up to six carriers. Each carrier can be activated individually or simultaneously. 

The 5112 generates CW carriers that are extremely clean and stable, making it ideal for testing and aligning CATV forward and return paths, as well as commercial and institutional networks.

The Model 5112 generates RF continuous wave signals for use as reference signals when aligning 2-Way CATV forward and return bands. This fully portable, battery-powered unit may be configured with one to four RF carriers. Up to six carriers may be used when all carriers are less than 180 MHz. Each carrier may be activated individually or simultaneously. The optional built-in attenuator provides up to 70 dB of carrier amplitude range. The compact design allows convenient return alignment in conjunction with forward sweep or rough balance efforts. With spectral purity of at least 60 dBc, the carriers may also be used for hum and noise evaluation tests. The unit will operate for six hours continuously and is enclosed in a rugged, portable case.
