The Keysight FieldFox D-Series represents the latest generation of professional handheld analyzers for field use and combines the highest measurement performance with state-of-the-art software-defined radio functionality. The devices cover frequency ranges up to 54 GHz and offer a real bandwidth of up to 120 MHz - ideal for 5G-FR1/FR2 tests, satellite communication, radar, EMC and EMF measurements as well as demanding spectrum analyses in military or industrial environments.
Thanks to the new Linux operating system, users benefit from increased system security, an optimized operating concept and improved remote control. The integrated SFP+ ports (10 GbE) enable ultra-fast, seamless streaming of IQ data - a decisive advantage for real-time analysis, interference management, TDoA/AoA location procedures or AI-supported signal evaluation.
Compared to the Keysight FieldFox C series, the D series sets new standards: It offers higher analysis bandwidths (up to 120 MHz), a modern touch display, high-speed SFP+ interfaces and a completely revised security and operating system concept. While the C series takes a software-defined approach, the D series is clearly geared towards high-frequency applications with advanced demodulation and streaming functions and thus meets the requirements of current 5G, satellite and radar networks far more comprehensively.
The N9938D model presented here is the most powerful model of the N993xD signal analyzers and offers an extended frequency range of up to 26.5 GHz. This makes it ideal for demanding applications in 5G-FR1, in the lower FR2 preparation range, in satellite communications (e.g. Ku-band), in radar and defense systems, in industrial RF monitoring and in broadband microwave measurements.
The N9938D - like all D-Series models - offers the full 120 MHz real-time bandwidth and 120 MHz gapless IQ streaming. Its extended frequency range makes it particularly suitable for highly dynamic spectra, broadband modulation formats, fast pulses and demanding interference and noise signal analysis. In combination with Linux OS, SFP+ interfaces and advanced RTSA functionality, the N9938D is a state-of-the-art analysis tool for professional RF and microwave applications.
Features of the N9938D:
- Frequency range up to 26.5 GHz - ideal for 5G-FR1, FR2 preparation, Ku-band satcom, radar, industrial RF and demanding microwave measurements
