IoT Device Manufacturing — 802.11 connection stability testing for smart home gateways (Anritsu customer case library)
Technical Adaptation for Rental Scenarios
Short-Term Project Deployment — Pre-configured test templates + LANLook software, basic setup in 5 minutes (70% reduction in configuration time)
Multi-Model Compatibility — Compatible report formats with MT8850 series, no data re-parsing required for rental upgrades
Core Technology Architecture
Features "RF Frontend + Baseband Processor + Embedded Software" three-tier design: RF frontend supports full 2.4GHz band coverage (Standard WLAN tester architecture). Baseband processor enables real-time AFH (Adaptive Frequency Hopping) detection. Embedded LANLook software provides graphical analysis (Anritsu technical documentation). CombiTest software automates production testing workflows.
| Technical Dimension | MT8860C | Competitor X (Equivalent) | Comparison Basis |

| IP Configuration | Built-in DHCP auto-assignment | Manual configuration required | Feature comparison on official websites |
WLAN Device Production Test Workflow
Connection: USB-C quick connection (2x faster than traditional RF cables), hot-swappable
Configuration: LANLook software selects device type → auto-loads corresponding test template
Analysis: Real-time EVM/power ramp trajectory graphs, 1kHz data sampling rate
Output: Direct PDF report printing with SIG certification fields
Technical Usage Boundary
Receiver sensitivity test error increases ±2dB in strong EMI environments (>-60dBm co-channel interference) (Estimated from common WLAN test scenarios). Mitigation: ① Enable built-in anti-interference filter mode; ② Use external shielding chamber for short-term testing (Anritsu application guide).
