N5182BX07 Frequency Extender 9 kHz to 7.2 GHz

Data Sheets

The Keysight N5182BX07 Frequency Extender is an accessory for the MXG (N5182B) or EXG (N5172B) that extends the frequency range to 7.2 GHz. The N5182BX07 is especially well suited for 802.11ax measurements, due to its excellent phase noise and EVM.

Definitions and Conditions

Specifications represent warranted performance of a calibrated instrument with Extender Input Power Offset set to 0 dB that has been stored for a minimum of two hours within the operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C, unless otherwise stated, and after a 45-minute warm-up period. The specifications include measurement uncertainty. Data represented in this document are specifications unless otherwise noted.

Typical (typ) describes additional product performance information that is not covered by the product warranty. It is performance beyond specifications that 80 percent of the units exhibit with a 90 percent confidence level at room temperature (approximately 25 °C). Typical performance does not include measurement uncertainty.

Nominal (nom) values indicate the expected mean or average performance, or an attribute whose performance is by design, such as the 50 Ω connector. This data is not warranted and is measured at room temperature (approximately 25 °C).

Measured (meas) describes an attribute measured during the design phase for purposes of communicating expected performance, such as amplitude drift vs. time. This data is not warranted and is measured at room temperature (approximately 25 °C).
