Keysight (Agilent) M9383B VXG-m Microwave Signal Generator
The Keysight M9383B is a Dual-channel PXIe Microwave Signal Generator from Keysight that operates from 1 MHz to 44 GHz with a 2 GHz RF Bandwidth. This signal generator has an output power range from -110 to 23 dBm. The high output power allows it to compensate for system loss and enable 5G power amplifier and over-the-air (OTA) testing. It has phase cohe LO and baseband synchronization for multi-user or beamforming MIMO OTA testing.
The M9383B signal generator is compatible with Keysight's PathWave Signal Generation software which can help accelerate design and test workflows. It has a new graphical user interface for 5G NR that delivers a streamlined experience when creating standard-compliant test signals. This is the modular version of this Signal Generator, that has no in-built screen. The same Signal Generator is available with a multi-touch screen under Model Number .
Specifications for the Keysight (Agilent) M9383B VXG-m Microwave Signal Generator Include:
| Frequency | 1 MHz to 44 GHz |
| Output Power @1 GHz | -110 dBm to +23 dBm |
| Harmonics @1 GHz | -54 dBc |
| Phase Noise @1 GHz (20 kHz offset) | -140 dBc/Hz |
