Description
The PXIe-5831 mmWave VST, featuring part numbers 786857-01, 786853-01, and 786856-01, falls under the category of VST. This model is specifically designed to accommodate a wide range of applications, including 5G New Radio, Wi-Fi 6, and various other wireless and cellular standards. It is highlighted by its significant bandwidth of 1 GHz and a frequency range spanning from 5 to 21 GHz.
In terms of components, the PXIe-5831 comprises the PXIe-5653 RF Analog Signal Generator, the PXIe-5820 Vector Signal Transceiver, and the PXIe-3622 Vector Signal Up/Down Converter. This combination of components ensures a robust and versatile testing framework suitable for a broad spectrum of signal generation and analysis tasks within the specified frequency ranges.
For optimal performance, it is recommended to house the PXIe-5831 in either a PXIe-1092 or PXIe-1095 chassis. This setup necessitates a PXI Express chassis and a PXI Express embedded controller to ensure compatibility and seamless operation.
Despite its announcement of obsolete status by National Instruments, the PXIe-5831 mmWave VST – available in versions with two heads (with no switches or two switches) – remains accessible for purchase and repairs via Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to rely on this advanced technology for their critical testing and development needs in the realm of high-frequency signal processing.
