Option Descriptions
75Ω Input Impedance (Option 001)
For 8590L and 8591E only. This option provides a 75Ω input impedance
instead of the standard 50Ω impedance. analyzers with this option use
cables, circuit boards, and front panels that are different from the
standard units.
Memory Card Reader (Option 003)
For 8590L, 8592L, and 8594L only. This option provides a memory card
reader to save and recall data from a memory card. Analyzers with this
option have an opening on the front panel to insert the memory card.
Option 003 includes a 32 KB memory card and a memory card holder.
The memory card reader is standard for the 8591E, 8593E, 8594E,
8595E, and 8596E.
Option 003 is also available as a retrofit kit (Option R03) after the
purchase of your analyzer, or as a kit part number 5062-6456.
Precision Frequency Reference (Option 004)
For 8591E, 8593E, 8594E, 8595E, and 8596E only. This option provides
increased absolute frequency-reference accuracy because the internal
oscillators are phase-locked to an internal precision-frequency
reference.
Option 004 is also available as a retrofit kit (Option R04) after the
purchase of your analyzer, or as a kit part number 5062-6459.
LO and Sweep+Tune Outputs on Rear Panel
(Option 009)
For 8593E, 8594E, 8595E, and 8596E only. Option 009 provides local
oscillator output and sweep + tune output at the rear panel for use with
external tracking sources such as 85644A and 85645A.
Tracking Generator (Option 010 and Option 011)
For 8593E, 8594E, 8595E, and 8596E only. Option 010 provides a 9 kHz
to 2.9 GHz built-in tracking generator. This source-receiver
combination makes insertion-loss, frequency response, and return-loss
measurements. The tracking generator has a wide distortion-free
dynamic range, plus good sensitivity and selectivity. Option 010 has the
standard 50Ω output impedance.
