Test Set Options
The U3042AE12 has three available test set options:
Refer to “System Block Diagram” beginning on page 85.
• Standard - solid state switches for fast switch speed and improved switch life.
(No Option 001 or 002 on the serial tag).
• Option 001 solid state switches with amplifiers to improve dynamic range.
• Option 002 solid state switches with amplifiers and bias-tees for each port.
NOTE The Options 700, 001, and 002 limit the frequency range due to blocking
capacitors in the switches and amplifier performance. Solid state switches
degrade frequencies below 2 MHz, and 001 or 002 amplifiers degrade
performance above 18 GHz.
Accessory Options
Installation instructions are included in the option package.
• Option 1CM - Rackmount Kit (5063-9215).
• Option 1CN - Front Handle Kit (5063-9228).
• Option 1CP - Rackmount with front handle Kit (5063-9222).
Cable Options
The U3042AE12 has available cable options:
• Option 016 provides the interface cable set and hardware to connect the test set to the
PNA-L.
• Option 042 provides the interface cable set and hardware to connect the U3042AE12 to
the PNA-X.
