26.BER DATA IN Use this connector to input the data streams for the bit-error-rate measurements. This female BNC connector is present only on instruments with Option UN7.

27.BER CLK IN Use this connector to input the clock signal for the bit-error-rate measurements. This female BNC connector is present only on instruments with Option UN7.

28.BER GATE IN Use this connector to input the clock gate signal for the

bit-error-rate measurements. The connector can be enabled or disabled by a softkey or an GPIB command. This female BNC connector is present only on instruments with Option UN7.

29.321.4 MHz IN Use this connector to input a downconverted 321.4 MHz GSM signal for base transceiver station (BTS) loopback measurements. This female SMB connector is present only on instruments with Option 300.
