Keysight M9360A PXI Attenuator/Preselector

The M9360A PXI Attenuator/Preselector by Keysight is a combined 3-slot 3U module that gives attenuation and pre-selection signal conditioning for various system applications. The RF-input pre-selector for signal circulation offers execution to fulfill even the most challenging spectrum analysis applications

The M9360A gives the required input signal conditioning and routing for the Agilent M9351A and M9361A downconverters. This PXI Attenuator/Preselector uses an input step attenuator of 70 dB (10 dB/step) that allows a dynamic range of +30 dBm to - 160 dBm, typical. The module utilizes broadband switches to circulate the approaching RF signal to other PXI modules for further handling with limited signal degradation. Also, the electronically tuneable YTF permits an input image rejection over 80 dB and a prompt transmission capacity more than 40 MHz. For extra transfer speed, the M9360A offers a bypass path that naturally courses around the preselector restricted band. Other than working as a front end for downconversion applications, the M9360A is additionally valuable for RF and microwave attenuation or band-pass filtering.

When incorporated into Agilent's M9392A PXI Vector Signal analyzer and joined with the 89600 VSA software, the M9360A gives a total signal analyzer solution that empowers examination of 26.5 GHz communications, radar and avionics signals.

The Keysight M9360A has a frequency range of 100 kHz to 26.5 GHz with a data transfer capacity of 35 MHz (preselected, <3 GHz). This attenuator can assess enormous bandwidth signals and has automatic signal directing for extra bandwidth with a bypass path.
