KeysightCare and the N5186A MXG Signal Generator

Ensure repeatable reliability, and accuracy, all the time

New Applications Drive New Requirements

As the complexity of RF tests increases, elevate the productivity of your engineering teams by providing priority access to industry-leading technical experts, a comprehensive knowledge center, and committed turnaround times for repair and calibration. These services are vital to your test success and will help your teams stay on schedule and optimize uptime. Your new N5186A MXG vector signal generator includes one year of KeysightCare Assured. You can easily upgrade to multiyear options as most technical questions occur in the first 3-5 years. Plus, KeysightCare Enhanced adds periodic calibration coverage for complete performance verification, accuracy, and accelerated turnaround times.

Measure with Confidence

Connect with KeysightCare’s world-class technical experts in embedded reflectometry for advice on leveling the N5186A MXG vector signal generator’s RF output to your device under test (DUT). With technical advice on setting up various modulations, you can quickly and confidently make accurate measurements. In addition, you can count on committed response times as low as 2 business hours with KeysightCare Enhanced.

Technical support

KeysightCare provides fast access to a dedicated team of technical and application support engineers who can assist with both instrument and application software questions. Your KeysightCare agreement entitles you to talk to or email experts, and you can count on a committed response time. KeysightCare engineers provide the advice you need to leverage programming examples and manage code compatibility concerns. KeysightCare Application Software Support ensures your Signal Generator has access to the most recent PathWave software that includes the latest enhancements and measurement standards. Common questions include:

• How do I set up my new signal generator, so I can quickly characterize my device under test?

• Will my existing software code work with the new MXG?

• How to correct for cabling and level the RF output?

KeysightCare application engineers are ready to support you on any of those questions. Get in touch by opening a support case.

Repair

When you are challenged by an unexpected need for instrument repair, you can count on KeysightCare. Easily create a support case using the Keysight Support portal and know that you have a committed repair turnaround time to help you get back to testing quickly.

Calibration

Calibration is key to test equipment accuracy and repeatability. Avoid false positive results by upgrading to KeysightCare Enhanced which includes calibration of choice. With Keysight calibration you gain peace of mind because the process measures every specification, every time. Periodic calibrations help maintain the best-in-class Error Vector Magnitude (EVM), Adjacent Channel Power Ratio (ACPR), and phase noise.
