The Agilent/Keysight 11758V is a Digital Radio Test System designed for installation, maintenance, and service of digital microwave radio systems. This obsolete platform provided essential measurements for digital microwave radio deployments. While the 11758V itself is no longer in production, Keysight’s complementary RF and microwave interconnect solutions—including precision coaxial cables and connectors—remain available for legacy system support and measurement applications across demanding test environments.
Technical Specifications
• Product Type: Digital Radio Test System (Obsolete)
• Primary Application: Installation, maintenance, and service of digital microwave radio systems
• Key Capability: Delivers key measurements for digital microwave radio systems
– Key Features
Keysight’s associated coaxial cable and connector portfolio supports frequencies up to 67 GHz in precision measurement configurations. Connector options include SMA, 3.5-mm, 2.92-mm, and 2.4-mm types, each optimized for specific frequency bands and mechanical requirements.
The 2.92-mm connector operates to 40 GHz and provides intermateable compatibility with SMA and 3.5-mm connectors. The 2.4-mm connector—developed jointly by HP, Amphenol, and M/A COM—extends performance to 50 GHz with enhanced outer wall thickness and reinforced female contact fingers compared to earlier connector generations. The 2.4-mm design also accommodates mating with SMA, 3.5-mm, and 2.92-mm connectors through precision adapters.
Keysight cables are engineered for phase stability and durability under harsh operational conditions.
– Typical Applications
• Digital microwave radio system installation and commissioning
• In-service maintenance and performance verification
• Field diagnostics and troubleshooting of digital radio links
– Compatibility & Integration
The 11758V integrates with Keysight’s network analyzers using calibration kits rated to 67 GHz. Spectrum analyzers and signal analysis software extend measurement and demodulation capabilities for complex digital signals. Interconnect solutions—coaxial cables and precision connectors—ensure signal integrity across the full measurement chain in RF and microwave test systems.
