z8655 VSA (Discontinued)
Vector Signal Analyzer PXIe
The z8655 Vector Signal Analyzer provides 1 GHz of instantaneous analysis bandwidth for wideband modulated signals.
Capable of up to 7.2 GHz RF spectrum analysis, the VSA exceeds the necessary phase noise, EVM and power requirements for 802.11ax, ensuring no compromise is made on the DUT performance.
Advantages
- Offers extremely low EVM floor of <-50 dB, required for 802.11ax
- Supports wideband RF capture for Digital Pre-Distortion
- 1 GHz covers single capture for fast mask testing
Key Specifications
- Multi-band support—2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, U-NII-4/5/6/7/8 with comprehensive range of operation from 250 MHz to 7.2 GHz
- High IF provides image-protection for capture of signals with carrier aggregation such as 802.11ax 80+80, 160 or LTE-A
- 20 GHz spectrum analyzer extension with module z8612
Remarkable Test Capabilities
- Ideal for MIMO applications (up to 8×8 true MIMO in a single zSeries 18-slot chassis)
- PA/FEM characterization and DVT
- Comprehensive testing capability on all Modulation and coding schemes (MCS)—BPSK up to 1024-QAM
- Supports all modulation bandwidths: 160 MHz, 80 MHz, 40 MHz and 20 MHz
