About Series 890

The compact and modular VLF-HF receivers are ideal for use in stationary, mobile and remote receiving systems. Due to the modern and flexible concept, the receivers can be used as communication receivers in communication networks and for fast search, scanning, radio detection and radiomonitoring tasks. Moreover, the units are optimally suitable as highperformance frontend units (e.g. for special post-processing applications (COMINT)) as well as for DF systems.
 
The Digital VLF-HF Receivers R&S EK895 and R&S EK896 use digital signal processing (DSP) for IF, demodulation and AF. The DSP, equipped with a very powerful microprocessor, offers a variety of additional features to the user such as automatic signal processing, signal optimization and high operating convenience. All this significantly improves the attainable reception quality.
 
The very compact ½ 19" single receivers or 19" (rackable) single or dual receivers allow any type of system combinations in the form of operator positions or handoff receivers (master-slave operation). Handoff or remote receiving operation over any distance is possible without any constraints using master (R&S EK896)/slave (R&S EK895) concepts.
 
There is a LINK-11 option (reception) available for both R&S EK895 and R&S EK896.
 
Moreover, the Remote Control Unit R&S GB899 or serial computer interfaces (also bus-compatible) for PC-controlled operation of single receivers or up to 99 handoff receivers (addressable) are available in the system.
