The bandwidth extension option R&S
FSW-B320/-U320 requires a reference board
revision 3.14 or higher.
The bandwidth extension option R&S
FSW-B500 requires a reference board
(1312.8075.06) revision 4.06 or higher and a motherboard 1313.4180.02 or
1313.7698.02.
Together with the bandwidth extension an additional IF output connector is provided
(IF WIDE OUTPUT). As opposed to the default
connec-
tor, the IF output frequency of the optional connector cannot be defined manually, but
is determined automatically depending on the center frequency. For details on the
used frequencies see the data sheet. The IF WIDE OUTPUT connector is used auto-
matically when the bandwidth extension is activated (i.e. for bandwidths > 80 MHz).

IF/VIDEO/DEMOD OUTPUT
The female BNC connector can be used for various outputs:
●
Intermediate frequency (IF) output of approximately 20 MHz
●
Video output (1V)
Which output is provided is defined in the software (INPUT/OUTPUT key).
For details see
3.2.2.8
IF OUTPUT (2
GHz)
The female SMA connector is only available for instrument models R&S
FSW43/50/67
and can be used to provide intermediate frequency (IF) output of approximately 2 GHz
at a frequency of 2
GHz.
Output is activated in the software (INPUT/OUTPUT key).
For details see
3.2.2.9
Digital Baseband Interface (R&S
FSW-B17) and R&S EX-IQ-BOX
The R&S
FSW Digital Baseband Interface option (R&S
FSW-B17) provides an online
digital I/Q data interface on the rear panel of the instrument for input and output. The
digital input and output can be enabled in the base unit or in one of the applications
(where available).
Optionally, an R&S EX-IQ-BOX can be connected to the Digital Baseband Interface to
convert signal properties and the transmission protocol of the R&S
FSW into user-
defined or standardized signal formats and vice versa.
