Highlights

Leading the Way in Millimeter-Wave Testing

The M9383B VXG-m is the industry's first dual-channel microwave signal generator providing up to 44 GHz frequency

  • Wide RF bandwidth (2 GHz)
  • High output power to compensate for system loss and enable 5G power amplifier and over-the-air (OTA) testing
  • Phase coherent local oscillator (LO) and baseband synchronization for multiuser or beamforming MIMO OTA testing
  • PathWave Signal Generation software supports application-specific and custom signal creation
  • 3GPP 5G NR standard-compliant signals with channel coding and multi-antenna port support

Address the Most Demanding Wideband Millimeter-Wave Applications

Keysight's VXG signal generators offer a range of advanced features.

  • Optimize measurement integrity and minimize uncertainty for wide bandwidths at millimeter-wave frequencies
  • Experience a streamlined graphical user interface for 5G NR when creating standard-compliant test signals
  • Choose from two convenient form factors with identical performance — multi-touch benchtop or PXI
