Configuration of a banded solution is similar to configuration of a single sweep solution
using separate components. With the support of several frequency extenders and vec-
tor network analyzer options, the banded solutions offer industry leading flexibility and
extensibility for measurements to 1.1 THz.
To configure basic hardware required for a particular solution select the
following three components:
1. Performance network analyzer configured to support either a test set controller or
direct connection of the frequency extenders
2. 2- or 4-port millimeter test set controller, not required for direct connection. See page
13 for Supported measurement capability.
3. Select the required frequency extenders for the frequency coverage required
