GAO Tek Inc. is introducing an upgrade to its DS1185 (B) Signal Level Meter. The newly developed model, DS1185 (B) Super Signal Level Meter, is designed to provide features which are most widely used and favored by professionals in the CATV industry. Key functions include measuring and displaying amplitude at predefined frequencies or carriers. In addition, the feature of peak-hold level measurement in the LEVEL and SPECTRUM mode can even detect the occasional disturbance.

Analogue channels, Digital channels (QAM) and FM channels can all be tested efficiently and accurately. The device also supports C/N measurement, voltmeter functions, spectrum analysis, auto test and data logging. Overall, it is easy to for a wide range of applications. As a result, the market demand has been consistently strong. The letter 'B' in the product designation refers to its capability to provide a broader frequency range and support the return path measurement.
