Keysight Technologies - N9042B Configuration Guide
Keysight Technologies - N9042B Data Sheet
Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
What frequency range options are available for the Keysight N9042B UXA analyzer?
The N9042B offers three frequency range options: option 526 covers 2 Hz to 26.5 GHz, option 544 covers 2 Hz to 44 GHz, and option 550 covers 2 Hz to 50 GHz. All options start from 2 Hz for DC-coupled measurements and utilize multiple frequency bands with different LO multiplication factors for optimized performance across the range.
What analysis bandwidth options can be configured on the N9042B?
The N9042B supports several analysis bandwidth options as required selections. Option R10 provides 1 GHz, R15 provides 1.5 GHz, R20 provides 2 GHz, and R40 provides 4 GHz analysis bandwidth. For applications requiring up to 11 GHz analysis bandwidth, option CRW (wide IF out connector) enables external digitizer connectivity.
Which preamplifier options are compatible with the N9042B-550 model?
For the N9042B-550, two preamplifier options are available: option P50 for full performance and option P5L for basic performance without export control restrictions (non-IVL). Both cover the full 50 GHz frequency range. A low noise amplifier is included as standard when any preamplifier option is installed, licensed as N9042B-LNA.
What external mixing capabilities does the N9042B support?
The N9042B includes standard external mixing capability (option EXM) with a single port for LO out and IF in using SMA female connector. When using Keysight 11970 Series external mixers, an external diplexer is required. Option EXW enables wide bandwidth external mixing for use with the V3050A signal analyzer frequency extender, supporting frequencies up to 1.1 THz with appropriate VDI modules.
What measurement applications are included with the N9042B base configuration?
The base N9042B includes spectrum analyzer and IQ analyzer functionality as standard. It also includes enhanced phase noise performance, fast sweep capability, external mixing support, LO/IM nulling, low noise path, microwave preselector bypass, full bypass path, precision frequency reference, noise floor extension, and real-time data link for IQ streaming up to 40 MHz with a digital processor containing 16 GB capture memory.
Can the N9042B be upgraded from 26.5 GHz to 50 GHz frequency coverage?
Yes, field upgrades are available. The N9042BU-F14 upgrade extends a 26.5 GHz unit (option 526) to 50 GHz but requires return to Keysight factory. If the unit already has the P26 preamplifier installed, you must also order the N9042BU-P50 or N9042BU-P5L preamplifier upgrade. Upgrading from 44 GHz to 50 GHz uses N9042BU-F15, which includes the preamp upgrade.
What 5G NR and cellular measurement applications can run on the N9042B?
The N9042B supports 5G NR measurements through application N9085EM0E for standard-based, one-button 5G NR downlink and uplink testing. Additional cellular applications include W-CDMA/HSPA+ (N9073EM0E), LTE/LTE-Advanced FDD (N9080EM0E), LTE TDD (N9082EM0E), NB-IoT/eMTC (N9080EM3E), and LTE V2X (N9080EM4E). Multi-box synchronization for MIMO analysis is also available with N9042MMOB.
What processor and memory configuration does the N9042B include?
The N9042B comes standard with a hex-core, high-performance processor and 32 GB RAM with flash calibration file memory. The digital processor includes 16 GB capture memory. Storage is handled by a removable solid-state drive running Microsoft Windows 10, and an additional removable SSD with Windows 10 can be ordered as option SS2 for security or backup purposes.
