High-precision data acquisition
The new R&S®IQW provides excellent performance while ensuring easy operation. High resolution allows tests under real world conditions.
15 Tbyte SSD memory pack
With the R&S®IQW-BD115 option you will get a server-grade SSD memory pack with 15 Tbyte storage capacity. This memory pack is supporting the recording and replaying process up to 1000 MHz. When using the maximum bandwidth of 1000 MHz, the R&S®IQW reaches approximately 65 minutes of recording time. The maximum recording time is increased by reducing the selected bandwidth. There are additional SSD memory packs available in 3,2 Tbyte and 6,4 Tbyte.
Recording time as a function of data rate
The system makes the difference
The R&S IQW is a versatile I/Q wideband recorder, that can be used with various R&S instruments. The signal and spectrum analyzer R&S®FSW and signal generator R&S®SMW200A is support for high-end applications. Furthermore the operation with R&S®SMBV100B and R&S®SGT100A is supported.
Record and replay wizard for easy and fast operation
The innovative GUI of the R&S®IQW ensures an easy handling of the recording and replay process. The R&S IQW has a user-optimized and clean GUI that gives a structured overview over the device properties and functionalities. Coming from a user perspective, the wizard is guiding you step-by-step through the recording and replaying process. This allows the user a fast, easy and intuitive operation of the device.
