M9471A PXIe Vector Transceiver

Data Sheets

 Introduction

The Keysight M9471A PXIe vector transceiver, working with the M9410A or M9411A VXT PXIe vector transceiver, offers full frequency coverage from 1 MHz to 26.5 GHz which makes it the ideal choice for developing and characterizing components and devices for 5G NR, Wi-Fi and many other applications.

 

Definitions and Conditions

This data sheet provides performance information for Keysight M9471A PXIe vector transceiver. Data applies when working with Keysight M9410A or M9411A VXT PXIe vector transceiver, M9300A PXIe frequency reference and Keysight interconnect cables.

 

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
  • The system has been powered on continuously for at least 45 minutes warm-up time, with the IQ Analyzer or X-Series application (e.g. 5G NR) running (verify that LEDs are on and refer to “Time since start up” on the module GUI). If the system met these warm-up requirements and there is a brief power shutdown, such as a system reboot, allow 20 minutes of warm-up time after the system is powered back on
  • 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
  • If the module internal temperature has changed more than 5 °C from when the previous alignment was performed

 

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.
