Introduction
M8158A Arbitrary Waveform Generator Remote Head
The M8158A arbitrary waveform generator remote head is an external
amplifier box that is optional and can be used in conjunction with the
M8199A-ILV Passive Combiner. It helps in minimizing signal degradations
caused by lossy channels. There are three cables which are fixed on the
back side of M8158A. These cables need to be connected to M8199A
Remote Head and the DataOut ports of M8199A-ILV Passive Combiner.
