Technical Specifications

 

Definitions and conditions

 

Specifications describe the warranted performance of calibrated instruments. Data represented in this document are specifications under the following conditions unless otherwise noted.

 

• Specifications are valid from 45 to 75 °C for individual module temperature, as reported by the module, and 20 to 35 °C for environment temperature unless otherwise noted

• Calibrated instrument has been stored for a minimum of 2 hours within the allowed operating range

• If instrument has previously been stored at a temperature range inside the allowed storage range, but outside the allowed operating range, instrument must have been stored for a minimum of 2 hours within the allowed operating range before turn-on

• 45-minute warm-up time with the Modular TRX application running

• Calibration cycle maintained

• When used with Keysight M9300A frequency reference and Keysight interconnect cables

• An “All Alignment” has been run within the previous 7 days

• A “Fast Alignment” has been run:

-        Within the previous 8 hours

-        If the environmental temperature has changed more than 5°C from the previous Fast Alignment

 

Typical describes additional product performance information that is not covered by the product warranty. It is performance beyond specifications that 95 percent of the units exhibit with a 95 percent confidence level. This data does not include measurement uncertainty and is valid only at room temperature (approximately 25 °C) after alignment within the stated alignment time and temperature limits.

 

Nominal values indicate expected performance or describe product performance that is useful in the application of the product but are not covered by the product warranty.

 

Recommended best practices in use

 

• Use slot blockers and EMC filler panels in empty module slots to ensure proper operating temperatures. Keysight chassis and slot blockers optimize module temperature performance and reliability of test.

• Set chassis fan to high at environmental temperatures above 35 °C.
