ME7848A/E ONA System Operation

This section describes the system operation of the ME7848A/E ONA System.

The ME7838AX/EX VNA outputs a stimulus signal from its test port and feeds directly to the MN4775A via

coaxial cable. These stimulus signal modulates the MN4775A E/O converter's internal laser. The modulated

optical signal is then sent to the MN4765B. The MN4765B O/E Calibration Module removes frequency from

the optical signal so test signal processing can occur.

The test signal from the MN4765B RF connector is then fed back to the test port of the MS464xB or

ME7838AX/EX VNA for further signal processing.
