PMM 9030 Frequency Extension
The PMM 9030 features a completely new receiver architecture based on
the most recent DSP technology, as shown on the diagram below.

Thanks to its very limited dimensions and lightweight construction, the
PMM 9030 can be connected directly to the antenna using the supplied
antenna support/adapter; the PMM 9030 is then linked to the PMM 9010 via
the built-in high speed optical link. This is a very unique feature that makes
the dream of all test engineers come true: no losses or mismatches
between the antenna and the receiver, no more bulky cables full of ferrites,
no more additional uncertainties due to the cables from the antenna to the
receiver!
The Optical link, whose transfer rate is more than 2,5 Gb/s, and the
proprietary transfer protocol help to ensure a communication almost error
free and always reliable in all test measurement conditions.
A result of all these innovating features is that the PMM 9030 is extremely
fast and a scan of the complete band up to 3 GHz can be performed in just
8 seconds: a terrific productivity increase in any test lab, in particular
because these performances are obtained with no quality or performance
compromises and with reduced uncertainties, compared to a traditional
solution.
