Description
The PXI Vector Signal Transceiver (VST), specifically model PXIe-5832, is designed to deliver advanced RF performance and flexibility with its range of specifications. This VST is identifiable by part numbers 787725-01, 787726-01, 787727-01, 787728-01, 787729-01, 787730-01, and 787731-01, catering to various configuration needs and applications.
The device operates across a broad frequency range from 5 GHz to 21 GHz, and also supports a higher frequency band from 22.5 GHz to 44 GHz, ensuring versatility for a wide range of RF and microwave applications. With an instantaneous bandwidth of 1 GHz, it is capable of handling complex, high-bandwidth signals.
Users can select from different configuration options depending on their specific requirements, including IF capabilities only or a combination of IF and mmWave capabilities. Additionally, for enhanced performance, the VST supports either one or two mmWave radio heads (mmRH-5582), allowing for expanded testing capabilities and flexibility.
For switch configurations, the VST can be outfitted with no switch, one switch, or two switches, depending on the complexity of the test setup and the need for multiplexing signals. The recommended chassis for optimal performance are the PXIe-1095 and PXIe-1092, which are designed to complement the VST’s capabilities.
Compatibility with software such as RFmx, NI-RFSA, and NI-RFSG ensures that users have access to powerful tools for signal analysis and generation, further enhancing the utility of the VST. Moreover, with self-calibrating features utilizing power detectors, the VST maintains high performance and accuracy, reducing the need for frequent manual calibration.
