Optional extensions

OCXO Reference Oscillator

ensures high absolute accuracy, minimum temperature-dependent drifts and especially high long-term stability.

Reference Frequency Inputs/Outputs

allow synchronization of the DUT or CMD to an internal or external frequency of 2.048, 10, 13, 26 or 52MHz or to the GSM bit clock.

Fast Power Ramp, Phase/Frequency Error and BER Measurement

This option enables fast testing and numeric/graphic display of power bursts and phase and frequency error as well as various BER, Fast BER, RBER and FER test routines.

GSM1900 (DCS1900) Mobile Station Test

The option allows the CMD55 to simulate a GSM1900 base station for fast mobile testing in R&D, production, TQM or service.

AF Measurement Unit with Frequency Counter

For measurements on the audio interface or on modules this option includes an AF generator, a voltmeter, a distortion meter and a frequency counter. Option CMD-B41 enables measurements up to 60MHz as are required for LO alignment. Another application is the testing of handsfree equipment.

High Dynamic Burst Analysis

This option doubles the dynamic range to more than 72 dB and allows the power ramp to be measured in the entire specified GSM/PCN/PCS range. The measurement determines whether the transmitter blanking in the inactive time slots is correct or not.

Spectrum due to Switching and Modulation

The option provides spectrum measurements "due to switching and modulation" according to GSM/PCN/PCS recommendations faster than any spectrum analyzer.

TDMA Signals and Option Carrier

This option provides GSM-specific signals and trigger inputs and is a prerequisite for operating options IEEE-bus Interface and Memory Card Interface.

IEEE/IEC-bus Interface

In addition to the standard-fitted RS-232-C interface, the CMDcan be fitted with this remote-control interface.

Memory Card Interface

Memory cards are a versatile medium for storing instrument setups.

GSM Test SIM

The SIM card is required for most types of radiocom equipment to perform BER measurements in the loop-back mode.

I/Q Demodulation Output and Trigger Input

The option provides signals on the rear panel for further analysis.
