The Y1132A is a module extender accessory designed to extend the backplane of the Keysight 34980A Multifunction Switch/Measure Unit outside the instrument chassis. This extender enables convenient servicing and access to plug-in modules without removing the mainframe from its rack installation. The Y1132A comprises a backplane extender module that installs within the 34980A and an external probing board, connected via supplied ribbon cables.
– Technical Specifications
• Product Type: Module Extender
• Compatibility: Keysight 34980A Multifunction Switch/Measure Unit
• Primary Interface: Ribbon cable connections between backplane extender and external probing board
– Key Features
• Extends 34980A backplane outside the mainframe chassis for remote module access
• Eliminates need to remove mainframe from rack during module servicing
• Two-component architecture: internal backplane extender module and external probing board
• Interconnected via provided ribbon cables for reliable signal routing
– Typical Applications
• Servicing plug-in modules within the 34980A without mainframe extraction
• Accessing modules in rack-mounted configurations where chassis removal is impractical
• Supporting measurement and switching operations that require external module access
– Compatibility & Integration
The Y1132A integrates with the Keysight 34980A platform, which supports RF and microwave applications with some plug-in modules capable of operating to 26.5 GHz. An SMA extender is available as an accessory for extending SMA connector interfaces. The Y1132A ribbon cable interface maintains backplane signal integrity while providing physical separation between the mainframe and external test points.
