Scramble capability Yes Yes
1. This level of performance can be attained using the external I/Q inputs, provided the quality of the baseband signal meets or exceeds that of the ESG baseband generator.
2. Parentheses denote typical performance.
3. Specifications apply at power levels
≤ +4 dBm [≤ +5 dBm for Option 506, and ≤ +8 dBm for Option UNB] with default scale factor of I/Q outputs.
4. Valid after executing I/Q calibration and maintained within +/- 5 °C of the calibration temperature.
5. ACP for TETRA is measured over a 25 kHz bandwidth, with an 18 kHz root raised cosine filter. Low ACP mode is valid at power levels
≤ –1 dBm [≤ 1 dBm for Option 506
and ≤ +4 dBm for Option UNB].
6. Specifications apply for the symbol rates, filter, filter factors [a or BbT] and default scaling factor specified for each standard, and at power levels ≤ +7 dBm [≤ +10 dBm for
Option UNB].
7. The “channel spacing” determines the offset size of the adjacent and alternate channels: Adjacent channel offset = 1 x channel spacing,
1st alternate channel = 2 x channel spacing, 2nd alternate channel = 3 x channel spacing, etc.
