EmPower Controller VNA

The EmPower Controller VNA sets a new standard in broadcast monitoring by combining continuous TDR analysis as well as on-demand frequency-domain analysis—all within the trusted EmPower Controller platform. Built using advanced vector network analysis module, it establishes a baseline of your transmission path and delivers real-time monitoring without taking systems offline. When deviations occur, the controller highlights anomalies, overlays sweep data, and issues proactive alerts so you can respond before minor issues become major outages. With direct VNA access, calibration management, automated reporting, and seamless integration into the EmPower ecosystem, the EmPower Controller VNA protects your systems 24/7 while reducing downtime, and costs.
