# Anritsu MG724E1 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz Microwave Signal Generator (Pre-Owned) # Anritsu MG724E1 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz Microwave Signal Generator (Pre-Owned) ## Key Features At A Glance - Two frequency variants: MG724E1 covers 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz; MG724G1 covers 12 GHz to 13 GHz - Output level range from -100 dBm to -5 dBm with maximum output of 0 dBm or greater - Level accuracy of ±1.5 dB and VSWR ≤1.7 (measured at the end of the supplied 2 m cable) - SSB FM noise of -95 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset (MG724E1); -75 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset (MG724G1) - Frequency accuracy of 0.3% with N-type output connector and dedicated FREQ. CHECK output ≥-5 dBm - Compact and lightweight: 240 (W) × 135 (H) × 130 (D) mm, ≤4 kg - Build-to-order product; model designation MG724\[ \] without power supply, MG724\[ \]1 with power supply The Anritsu MG724E1/G1 is a compact, lightweight microwave signal generator family available in two frequency variants: the MG724E1 covering 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz and the MG724G1 covering 12 GHz to 13 GHz. Both models share a common chassis measuring 240 (W) × 135 (H) × 130 (D) mm and weighing no more than 4 kg, with an N-type output connector and a separate FREQ. CHECK output rated at ≥-5 dBm. The model designation distinguishes units supplied without an internal power supply (MG724\[ \]) from those supplied with one (MG724\[ \]1). The MG724E1/G1 is designed for medium- and small-capacity microwave line repeater maintenance and adjustment. It is particularly suited to measuring AGC characteristics, squelch function, and signal-to-noise ratio on microwave links. Beyond field maintenance, its signal purity and frequency stability also make it suitable as a general-purpose signal source for microwave receiver adjustment on a production line. ValueTronics International has supported microwave test and measurement professionals since 1992, stocking, testing, and shipping legacy and current-generation RF instruments from our 20,000 sq ft secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive, Elgin, Illinois. Build-to-order Anritsu instruments like the MG724E1/G1 are exactly the kind of microwave maintenance equipment that benefits from a professional reseller who can verify configuration, confirm accessories, and document condition before shipment — work performed in-house by our technicians rather than passed through to a drop-shipper. ## Brand Heritage Anritsu Corporation traces its origins to 1895 in Japan and has been a continuous presence in RF and microwave test equipment under the Anritsu name throughout the era of the MG724 series. The company's RF and microwave portfolio was substantially expanded by its 1990 acquisition of Wiltron Company of the United States, with the combined product range subsequently consolidated under the Anritsu brand. ## Compare Other Models in This Series The MG724 series consists of two microwave signal generators that share a common chassis, control layout, and accessory complement but cover different microwave frequency bands. The MG724E1 covers the lower 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz range typical of medium-capacity microwave link repeaters, while the MG724G1 covers 12 GHz to 13 GHz for higher-frequency repeater work. Both variants are offered as build-to-order products with two power-supply configurations: a base unit without internal power supply (MG724\[ \]) and a unit with internal AC 100 V power supply (MG724\[ \]1). All other RF specifications — frequency accuracy, output level range, level accuracy, VSWR, and the FREQ. CHECK output — are identical across the two frequency variants. Each pre-owned MG724-series unit listed below has its own product page with condition-matched pricing and configuration detail. Select the variant that matches the microwave band of the repeater system being maintained or the receiver being adjusted. The two MG724 variants differ in two specifications: the covered frequency range and the SSB FM noise at 10 kHz offset. The MG724E1 spans 6.3 GHz to 7.8 GHz with SSB FM noise of -95 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. The MG724G1 spans 12 GHz to 13 GHz with SSB FM noise of -75 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. The higher noise figure on the MG724G1 reflects the practical realities of generating low-noise signals at the higher microwave band. Power consumption also scales with frequency band: the MG724E1 draws ≤10 VA from its AC 100 V, 50/60 Hz supply, while the MG724G1 draws ≤30 VA. Fuse ratings follow accordingly — 0.2 A spares for the MG724E1 and 0.5 A/0.8 A fuses for the MG724G1. The comparison table below summarizes the differences between the two variants.
