The Rohde & Schwarz SMH Signal Generator with SMG-B1 option is a precision RF signal source engineered for frequency and amplitude control across demanding test and measurement environments. The SMG-B1 option integrates an OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) reference oscillator, delivering exceptional frequency stability of 0.000002/yr and enabling high-spectral-purity signal generation. This combination supports communications systems, EMC/EMS measurement, satellite IF component testing, radar, avionics, and navigation equipment applications.
