Typical Applications The E1616A supports validation and troubleshooting of ATM network equipment across development, manufacturing, and deployment phases through cell-layer traffic generation, error injection, and comprehensive performance analysis.
Compatibility & Integration Designed exclusively for the Agilent/Keysight E4200/E4210 Broadband Series Test System as a single-slot module. Works with the optional E4209 Cell Protocol Processor for extended protocol testing capabilities.
Agilent / Keysight E1616A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight E1616A. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight E1616A faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
