Keysight V3050A Frequency Extender

Overview

The Keysight V3050A is a frequency extender that extends the N9042B UXA signal analyzer measurement capability from 50 GHz to as high as 110 GHz. Featuring a low-noise remote head design with preselector filterbank technology and fundamental mixing architecture, the V3050A delivers outstanding sensitivity and high dynamic range for advanced RF and microwave characterization in mmWave and satellite bands.

Key Features

• Frequency extension options: 50–67 GHz (F06), 50–90 GHz (F09), or 50–110 GHz (F11)
• Low-noise design for outstanding sensitivity
• 5-band electronically switched preselector filterbank to eliminate image responses
• Fundamental mixing architecture for high dynamic range
• Image rejection: >60 dB (50–88 GHz), >30 dB (88–110 GHz)
• Spurious responses: <-80 dBm typical for -20 dBm input signals across 50–110 GHz
• Remote head form factor for seamless integration with N9042B

Applications

• 5G and millimeter-wave device testing
