-   Selectable IF bandwidth from 1 Hz to 5 MHz
-   4-billion-byte data buffer; up to 500 million points per single cut (single parameter)
-   Ethernet (LAN), USB, GPIB and RS-232 host interfaces for automated test systems
-   Removable hard drive for secure environments

-   Five external IF inputs (A, B, C, D, R) on 50 Ohm SMA (female) connectors

The Agilent N5264A is a PNA-X measurement receiver that provides five simultaneous receiver inputs and five measurement receivers in a single instrument. It is built around external IF inputs that accept signals from remote mixers or frequency converters, with a selectable IF bandwidth spanning 1 Hz to 5 MHz.

The external IF inputs allow the use of external IF signals from remote mixers or frequency converters, presented as five inputs labeled A, B, C, D, and R on 50 Ohm SMA (female) connectors. The instrument exposes Ethernet, USB, and GPIB host computer interfaces, and its frequency source control interface uses a TTL handshake for coordinating an external source.

ValueTronics International stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000 sq ft secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every used unit is inspected and functionally verified in-house before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer.

## Brand Heritage

Hewlett-Packard's test and measurement business was spun out as Agilent Technologies in 1999. Agilent's electronic measurement business was subsequently established as Keysight Technologies in 2014.

> **Important:** External IF input damage levels: +23 dBm RF and 1 VDC.

> **Important:** Simultaneous operation of the internal and external displays is allowed, but with 640 X 480 resolution only. If you change resolution, you can only view the external display (internal display will "white out").

> **Important:** All specifications and characteristics apply over a 25 °C ±5 °C range (unless otherwise stated) and 90 minutes after the instrument has been turned on.

> **Important:** When configuring the N5264A Option 108 as the LO source, you may improve system measurement sensitivity by using a method of AM noise suppression.

> **Important:** For Regulatory and Environmental information, refer to the PNA Series Installation and Quick Start Guide, located online at http://cp.literature.agilent.com/litweb/pdf/E8356-90001.pdf.
