Product Overview
The Ceyear 3681 series cable and antenna analyzer has a frequency range of 300 kHz to 9 GHz and can test parameters including cable loss, VSWR and return loss. It can also identify minor issues through its VSWR or return loss fault location function, thereby eliminating potential faults.
The 3681B features a compact, lightweight design for easy transport and operation in confined spaces. With a 10.1-inch LCD touchscreen, it provides an intuitive interface for enhanced field testing efficiency.
The 3681BU cable and antenna analyzer works based on USB 3.0 bus communications. Compact, efficient and flexible, it is ideal for applications requiring high mobility and portability in test systems, such as communication and RF component testing. It is also applicable in scenarios requiring high automation and test efficiency.

Antenna and feeder analysis:
The 3681 cable & antenna analyzer supports measurement of return loss, VSWR, impedance, cable loss, and distance to faults of cables, feeders, and other DUTs, among which the measurement of return loss and distance to faults will help the user determine the specific causes of performance degradation of the antenna and feeder system. The antenna and feeder analysis function supports TDR test to analyze the types of cable faults. In addition, the instrument is also built in with some commonly used parameters of cables and feeders for ease of use.
USB power measurement (option):
The 3681B cable & antenna analyzer can be used to measure continuous wave signal up to 67GHz when connected to external Ceyear 87233C/D/E/F/LUSB continuous wave power sensors or 87235B/C/D/F/FA/H/LUSB average power sensors.
USB peak power measurement (option):
The 3681B cable & antenna analyzer, when connected via USB interface to external Ceyear 87234D/E/F/L USB peak power sensors and 87236D/E/F/L USB peak power sensors, can be used to measure RF/microwave signals up to 67 GHz, enabling pulse power measurements with a large dynamic range.
Optical time domain reflectometer (option):
The optical time-domain reflectometer of the 3681B cable & antenna analyzer, when connected to an external USB optical time-domain reflectometer, can be used to locate and analyze optical fiber fault points and measure optical power.
