6 GHz, 1 GHz Bandwidth, RF PXI Vector Signal Transceiver
Overview
The PXIe-5841 is a vector signal transceiver (VST) with 1 GHz of instantaneous bandwidth. It combines vector signal generator, vector signal analyzer and high-speed serial interface capabilities with FPGA-based real-time signal processing and control. The PXIe-5841 features the flexibility of a software defined radio architecture with RF instrument class performance. This VST delivers the fast measurement speed and small form factor of a production test box with the flexibility and high performance of R&D-grade box instruments. The PXIe-5841 is available with an optional high-performance local oscillator module for improved phase noise, measurement time, and EVM performance. You can use the VST to test a variety of cellular and wireless standards such as Wi-Fi 6 and 5G NR. In addition, you can expand the small, two slot 2U PXI Express form factor to support multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) configurations.
