A dedicated LED indicates the connector status:
●
Green: an input connector
●
Yellow: an output connector
●
No light: the connector is not active
See Chapter 10.2, "Configuring the Global Connectors", on page 515.
I/Q, I/Q Bar
Direct (single-ended) or differential output for the analog I/Q signal.
See also Chapter 8.7, "I/Q Analog Output Settings", on page 464.
Dig I/Q
Connectors for the input of a digital I/Q signal from a Rohde & Schwarz instrument, like
a signal generator.
HS Dig I/Q
Connectors for the input of high-speed digital I/Q signals, for example, from
Rohde & Schwarz instruments.
For more information, see data sheet.
The interface is a QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) module. It supports
max. bandwidth of up to 50 Gsample/s with optical active cables.
NOTICE! Risk of damaging the HS DIG I/Q interface.
Use active optical QSFP+ cable with max. power class 2 module (2.0 W max. power
consumption).
●
To plug in the cable:
Hold the QSFP+ plug by its panes. The release tab must be upwards oriented.
Insert it in the HS Dig I/Q cage and push it.
●
To disconnect the cable:
Do not pull the cable itself. Puling the cable can damage the cable and the HS
Dig I/Q connector.
Pull the release tab and pull the connector out of the HS Dig I/Q connector.

Adv Data/Ctrl
Interface for exchanging of external data and control signals.
LO In/LO Out
Option: R&S SMBVB-K90
Local oscillator input and output for phase-coherent RF signal:
●
LO In: Input of phase coherence signal
●
LO Out: Output of phase coherence signal
NOTICE! Risk of damaging components. Always use an appropriate 8 mm torque
wrench to tighten SMA connectors. Limit the tightening torque to 60 Ncm. Never use
an open-end wrench.
See Chapter 6.9, "Local Oscillator Coupling", on page 305.
