•Â  SCPI through socket and telnet connection
•Â  RRC filter for measuring LTE/W-CDMA channel power and adjacent channel power ratio
•Â  Keypad lock/unlock with password
•Â  Channel standards for LTE, WiFi and WiMAX™

Optional features include:
•Â  Peak and average power sensor support
•Â  New security measures
•Â  Baseband input (exclusive to the N9342C)

These enhancements augment the existing capabilities of the N934xC HSAs, which include:
• MIL PRF 28800F Class 2-compliance
• No fans or vents to prevent the ingress of elements
• Field-friendly one-button measurement
• A clear-view screen and backlit keys for use in any lighting condition
