N5477A Sampling Scope Adapter

The N5477A Sampling Scope Adapter allows you to connect the InfiniiMax III probing
system to the Infiniium 86100D DCA-X sampling oscilloscope or other RF instruments.

Connect the NMD/3.5 mm side of the adapter to one of the channel inputs on the
sampling oscilloscope. Then connect the power cord to either the probe power output on
the DCA-X 86100D wideband oscilloscope (if the module being used has this receptacle)
or to the 1143A power module. Finally, connect the other side of the adapter to the
InfiniiMax III probe amplifier.
Previously, the DCA-X wideband oscilloscope was limited to 13 GHz of probing, but with
the N5477A sampling oscilloscope adapter, the DCA-X can now probe up to 30 GHz.
The N5477A sampling oscilloscope adapter can also be used to connect the InfiniiMax III
probing system to generic 50 Ohm test equipment as long as the 1143A power supply and
5062-1247 NMD male-to-3.5mm female adapter are used. Both of these parts can be
ordered through Keysight Technologies.
