RSA600 Series
See the invisible with real-time DPX® technology.
Discover the most difficult, hard-to-find problems with the powerful real-time architecture of the RSA Series. With the advanced DPX® technology, you can see RF characteristics that are practically invisible to a conventional spectrum analyzer.
Over 20 add-on packages. Bluetooth 5 and pulsed signal analysis are just the start.
The RSA Series is powered by SignalVu-PC Vector Signal Analysis software which provides:
- Advanced measurement and debugging capabilities including advanced triggering that enables the capture of selective pulses from pulsed transmitters, as well as fast and elusive or unexpected transients during device troubleshooting.
- Ability to control more than one RSA connected to the same PC to measure simultaneous events at different frequencies, such as harmonics and out of band emissions.
- A wide range of add-on packages available covering common wireless standards, spectrum management, pulse measurements and more.
Unequaled size. Unlimited flexibility.
The RSA600 is conveniently sized to fit on your bench, in your lab, or stacked side-by-side on a rack. Continuously stream up to 40 MHz of data to your own Intel i5 or i7 PC, laptop, or tablet via USB 3.0. and unlock the latest in PC processing power, convenient file sharing, SignalVu-PC Vector Signal Analysis (VSA) software, and Windows or Linux APIs for building custom IQ-based applications. You choose the display and PC. Upgrade when you need or choose to.
Simultaneous capture on multiple channels
Easily acquire, analyze, and visualize RF events across multiple frequencies using one or more instruments connected to a single PC.
Signal quality validation of WLAN, Bluetooth, LTE, and more for wireless transmitter design.
With modulation analysis for WLAN, Bluetooth, LTE, and more, the RSA600 enables straightforward design characterization, troubleshooting, and certification at a low price. The internal tracking generator allows you to characterize RF components and systems.

Spectrum Monitoring and Interference hunting
The migration to mobile communications is creating unprecedented pressure for more spectrum capacity in a complex and crowded signal environment. Tek’s Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers help you discover and examine sources of interference quickly so you can locate and identify unwanted activity. You can ensure your signal integrity and adherence to compliance standards using the RSA306B, RSA500, or RSA600 for real-time spectrum insights.
Interference Hunting Application Note
Highlights
- The RSA600 spectrum analyzer's proprietary DPX technology enables precise, real-time measurements packaged in a portable, rugged form factor and easy-to-use software interface.
- The RSA600 spectrum analyzer covers up to 7.5 GHz, with 40 MHz bandwidth capture
EMI/EMC pre-compliance Testing
Save cost and precious time by performing pre-compliance testing in your lab with our Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers. You can use peak detection with a free version of SignalVu-PC. You also get more accurate results with quasi-peak and average detection by purchasing the additional option EMCVu. Learn more about EMI/EMC pre-compliance testing at our application page.
Low Cost EMI Pre-compliance Testing using a Spectrum Analyzer
Reduce manufacturing costs and test time with better test flexibility
The USB RSA’s are a great choice for manufacturers looking for greater throughput and product quality, all while controlling testing costs. The RSA 306B, 500, and 600 units offer support for major Internet of Things (IoT) standards in SignalVu-PC software, come with a complete offering of drivers and code examples, and include testing support for IoT technologies such as WiFi and the new Bluetooth 5.0.
Maximize your student’s learning
With our full featured and affordable Real-time Spectrum Analyzers, your students can capture results of experiments, perform analysis, and generate lab reports on their laptops, saving time and optimizing learning opportunities. It’s compact and portable size makes it easy to conduct experiments away from the lab in real world environments.

Instrument controller for USB spectrum analyzers
For field operations, a complete solution requires a Windows Tablet or laptop for instrument operation, record keeping and communication. Tektronix recommends the Panasonic FZ-G1 tablet computer for controlling the RSA500 series and as a standalone unit.
The Panasonic FZ-G1 tablet computer is sold separately and is available for purchase from Panasonic at their website here, and a variety of third party vendors. Tektronix recommends the FZ-G1 over other tablets because of its performance, portability, and ruggedized form-factor and it has been tested to work with all USB RSA products.
EMI and EMC testing accessories
Tektronix offers a complete set of validated EMI and EMC accessories including antennas, Line Impedance Stabilization Networks and pre-amplifiers for both conducted and radiated tests. All of these accessories are pre-loaded into EMCVu, Tektronix’ new software option for SignalVu. This means loss and gain of accessories are already captured in the software and are taken into account during the measurement. We’ve done this to help speed up setup and help you get more accurate results.
