Application-Specific Cabling
N5110A Baseband Studio for Waveform Streaming/N5110B Baseband Studio for
Waveform Capture and Playback, External Triggering
N5115A Baseband Studio for Fading, Dual Channel
Recommended Setup:
Connect three SMB-to-SMB cables between the two GPIO brackets as shown. The cables are connected as follows:
Alternate Setup:
If you are using two PCI cards for dual-channel fading and your PC has fewer than four open PCI slots, you can
connect the PCI cards internally using three MCX-to-MCX cables (Agilent part number 8121-0620). These cables are
not provided with the PCI card. The cables have MCX (male) connectors on both ends. They are connected as shown
below:
The GPIO bracket accepts an input trigger (Start), and
provides two output markers (Ready and Underflow).
For details, refer to the application’s help.
