Description
The PXIe-5831 Vector Signal Transceiver (VST) is a highly versatile instrument designed for advanced RF signal generation and analysis. This VST is part of the product category known for its high performance and flexibility in handling a wide range of signal processing tasks. The PXIe-5831 model comes with two part numbers, 786853-01 and 786856-01, catering to different configurations or package options.
Featuring a substantial 1 GHz bandwidth, the PXIe-5831 is capable of operating within a frequency range of 5 to 21 GHz. This wide frequency range makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring high-frequency operation, including but not limited to, radar systems, satellite communications, and wireless research.
The PXIe-5831 is composed of several key components that enhance its functionality and performance. These include the PXIe-5653 RF Analog Signal Generator, the PXIe-5820 Vector Signal Transceiver, and the PXIe-3622 Vector Signal Up/Down Converter. Together, these components provide a comprehensive solution for generating and analyzing complex RF signals.
Moreover, the VST supports a variety of standards, including 5G New Radio, Wi-Fi 6, and other critical wireless and cellular standards. This capability ensures that the device is future-proof and can handle the latest technologies in telecommunications.
For optimal performance, the PXIe-5831 should be housed in either the PXIe-1092 or PXIe-1095 chassis. These chassis options are recommended due to their compatibility and ability to support the rigorous demands of high-speed signal processing.
Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the PXIe-5831 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to leverage the powerful capabilities of the PXIe-5831 VST for their critical applications.
