National Instruments USRP-2974

The National Instruments USRP-2974 is a standalone Software Defined Radio (SDR) device designed for advanced research and prototyping applications. Featuring an Intel Core i7 processor, the USRP-2974 is equipped with a Kintex-7 XC7K410T FPGA and 1 GB of DRAM, enabling it to perform complex tasks such as 802.11 device testing, LTE emulation, MAC algorithm development, and MIMO systems. This versatile SDR operates across a frequency range of 10 MHz to 6 GHz, with two configurable RF transmitter channels and a dual receiver capable of delivering up to 160 MHz of instantaneous real-time bandwidth in step sizes of less than 1 kHz.

Additionally, the USRP-2974 includes a GPS-disciplined oscillator (GPSDO) that achieves frequency accuracy of up to 5 ppb when locked to GPS. The device operates within an input voltage range of 14.25 V to 15.75 V DC, consuming a maximum of 150 watts at around 10 A. Connectivity options include one SFP+ 10G Ethernet port for high-speed communications and a standard RJ45 1G Ethernet port for host connections, ensuring seamless data transfer. With 8 GB of RAM, the USRP-2974 delivers efficient, lag-free performance, making it an ideal choice for sophisticated SDR applications. The unit measures 11.45 in. × 8.60 in. × 3.14 in. and weighs 7.35 lbs. Users can access the user manual and maintenance resources online.
