Chicago, August 27, 2019: Newark, the Development Distributor, has launched a new limited time offer to help cost-constrained design engineers, research establishments, manufacturing and educational facilities acquire high precision test and measurement equipment, manufactured by market leader Rohde & Schwarz, for up to 50 percent below unit price.

Rohde & Schwarz system bundles, available as part of the discount offer, include oscilloscopes, power supplies, power analyzers and spectrum analyzers. Add-ons and upgrades, usually available at additional cost, are included within the price to future proof the purchase and reduce the need to buy additional components if testing requirements change.

Fully upgraded bundles from the Rohde & Schwarz value range available from Newark include:

• The RTB2K-COM4 Bundle, which includes a Rohde & Schwarz RTB2004, 4-channel digital oscilloscope upgraded to 300 MHz bandwidth, with a 10.1" high resolution 1280 x 800 pixel capacitive touchscreen TFT display; the R&S®RTB-B1 option which turns the R&S®RTB2000 into an intuitive-to-use MSO with 16 additional digital channels; the R&S®RTB-PK -K1, -K2, -K3, -K15, -B6 application package and passive probe. The bundle comes in at 42 percent lower than the fully loaded/standard unit price.
• The NGL-COM2A Bench Power Supply is perfect for challenging applications supporting the development of power amplifiers and MMICs. Its short recovery time allows for fast load changes that occur, for example, when mobile communications devices switch from sleep mode to transmit mode. The NGL-COM2A Bench Power Supply is available with an 11 percent discount on standard unit price.

·        The FPC-COM2 Spectrum Analyzer is the only device of its kind on the market that provides the value of three of the most commonly used instruments on a Radio Frequency (RF) engineer's workbench in a single package and is ideal for IoT device development. Buying a single multi-function also reduces calibration costs. The FPC1500 spectrum analyzer is being offered with a 41 percent discount on standard unit price.

·        The HMC8015COM is a user configurable, dual channel power analyzer and the first compact tester for AC/DC load and standby current characterization that enables measurements without additional tools, such as a computer or remote infrastructure. In addition to a numerical and graphical display with 26 key parameters, the instrument delivers performance and compliance protocols in line with IEC62301, EN50564 and EN61000-3-2. It graphically displays harmonic analysis up to the 50^th harmonic on the logarithmic scale and simultaneously displays up to 10-user configurable measurements with a refresh rate of 10 measurements per second. The HMC8015COM sets new standards when it comes to documentation and is available at up to a 32 percent discount on standard unit price.

James McGregor, Global Head of Test, Tools and Production Supplies at Newark said: “Rohde & Schwarz is a leading provider of high-quality test equipment and power supplies which we can now offer to Newark customers at exceptional prices – in some cases, with guaranteed savings of up to 50 percent.
