a. Note that MG3692A models require Option 15 to achieve power of +16 dBm at 3.5 GHz. MG3692B models do not require
Option 15 to achieve power of +16 dBm at 3.5 GHz.
Factory tests have shown that the equipment that is listed above will provide satisfactory results at
20 GHz (the upper limit of the MS2724C) even though the chart above specifies 18 GHz
Caution
(per manufacturers specifications). Many Type N cables have excessive loss for testing the
spectrum analyzer section of the instrument up to 20 GHz. An SMA cable or K cable should
therefore be installed on the MG synthesizer for all spectrum analyzer tests on the MS2724C.
