• Covers the cellular and lower ISM frequency bands
• Frequency resolution: 0.01 Hz
• Phase noise performance: -116 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz carrier, 20 kHz offset
• Output power: +23 dBm at 2 GHz with electronic attenuator
• Frequency switching speed with digital modulation on: 5 ms standard (SCPI mode & list mode) or 1.15 ms (SCPI) and 900 us (list) with Option UNZ.
• TCXO time base reference provides excellent frequency accuracy and drift characteristics

Generate RF Test Signals up to 6 GHz

Option 506 equips the Keysight MXG vector to generate signals in a 100 kHz to 6 GHz frequency range.

Typical Application

Option 506 is recommended for test cases that require CW, analog modulated, and vector modulated RF test signals at or below 6 GHz carrier frequencies. This option is ideal for popular communications systems in the cellular and ISM frequency bands, such as W-CDMA, cdma2000®, WLAN, and WiMAX™. Common signal generation uses include LO and clock substitution, interference generation, and reference signal generation for analog and digital components and receivers.
