This model is designed to have low spurious
signals, exhibit very good linearity, and is ex-
tremely load tolerant which enables it to be used
in many RF applications such as: RF susceptibility
testing, antenna/component testing, and com-
munication technology testing. It can be used as
a test instrument covering multiple frequency
bands and are suitable for a variety of commu-
nication technologies such as CDMA, W-CDMA,
TDMA, GSM, UWB, WiMAX etc.
The export classification for this equipment is
3A001. These commodities, technology or soft-
ware are controlled for export in accordance
with the U.S. Export Administration Regulations.
Diversion contrary to U.S. law is prohibited.
The Model 60/40S1G18B is a portable, self-
contained, air-cooled, dual-band, broadband,
completely solid-state amplifier designed for
applications where instantaneous bandwidth,
high gain and linearity are required.
This model is equipped with a Digital Control
Panel (DCP) which provides both local and re-
mote control of the amplifier. The digital display
on the front panel indicates control status and
reports of internal amplifier status. All amplifier
control functions and status indications are avail-
able remotely in GPIB/IEEE-488 format, RS-232
hardwire and fiber optic, USB, and Ethernet.
