Notes：
1. When 1465-V series signal generator is under environment temperature for 2 hours, attenuator is automatically coupling（or ALC power＞-5dBm）after 30 minutes warm-up time. The generator meets every parameter performance within given working temperature.
2. Typical value is a supplementary characteristic just for user’s reference. These specifications are not guaranteed.
3. 1465B-V is +16dBm.
4. Rating value is an expected performance, or used to describe the product performance which is useful but not included in product performance warranty.
5. Spectral purity parameter is tested in a certain frequency without any modulation.
Bm. The working frequency range of option H06 is greater than 100MHz，so there’s no tested specification under 100MHz.
