□ Comb Generators
U9391C 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz
U9391F 10 MHz to 50 GHz
U9391G 10 MHz to 67 GHz
PNA-X PNA PNA-L
The U9391C/F/G provides precision phase calibration, traceable
to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
standard. It is used for nonlinear measurements with the PNA-X
nonlinear vector network analyzer (NVNA). NVNA requires two
comb generators, one is connected during measurements and
another is used only during calibration. A comb generator is also
used to characterize the VNA receivers for delay measurements
of frequency converters using PNA-X or PNA with Option 083.
□ N1930B Physical Layer Test System Software (PLTS) version 2012
PNA-X PNA PNA-L
The Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) version 2012 software is
a powerful signal integrity tool for today's high-speed digital
designers. The PLTS software platform has become an industry
standard for calibration, measurement and analysis of linear
passive interconnects such as cables, connectors, backplanes
and printed circuit boards. Utilizing either a Vector Network
Analyzer (VNA) or Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR), fast and
accurate measurements can be obtained without in-depth
knowledge of microwave measurement techniques.

□ Rack mount kit without handles (Option 1CM)
PNA-X PNA PNA-L
Adds a rack mount (ICM042A) and rail kit (E3663AC) for use
without handles.
□ Rack mount kit with handles (Option 1CP)
PNA-X PNA PNA-L
Adds handles (5063-9230), a rack mount (5063-9237) and rail kit
(E3663AC) for use with handles.
□ Pulse I/O adapter (N1966A)
PNA-X PNA PNA-L
An adapter for connecting between the Pulse I/O connector
on the rear panel of the analyzer and the coaxial inputs and
outputs of external pulse generators and external pulse modu-
lators. Coaxial connectors are SMB-male. The PULSE IN
connectors are for controlling the analyzer’s internal IF gates,
which are enabled with Option 008 and used with narrowband
detection. The PULSE OUT connectors are from the four internal
pulse generators, which are enabled with Option 025. The
PULSE SYNC IN connector is used to synchronize the internal
pulse generators with an external timing pulse. The RF PULSE
MOD IN connector controls the internal pulse modulator(s)
which are enabled with Options 021 and 022.
Pulse I/O adapter (N1966A) simplifies connections
