Digital Oscilloscope (4 Analog Channels / 2 GHz)
The MXO 5C is based on MXO 5 hardware, firmware and software. When connected to a web browser, the user interface is an identical to an MXO 5 front panel. The SCPI commands, savesets and waveform formats are also identical.
Several versions available
Rohde & Schwarz offers several versions of its MXO5C. The chart below outlines part numbers, along with corresponding channel and bandwidth options.
Model | Bandwidth | Channels |
MXO54C | 350 MHz | 4 |
MXO5C-45 | 500 MHz | 4 |
MXO5C-410 | 1 GHz | 4 |
MXO5C-420 | 2 GHz | 4 |
MXO58C | 100 MHz | 8 |
MXO5C-82 | 200 MHz | 8 |
MXO5C-83 | 350 MHz | 8 |
MXO5C-85 | 500 MHz | 8 |

MXO5C-820 | 2 GHz | 8 |
12-bit ADC, 18-bit vertical architecture
The MXO 5C series has an incredibly low-noise signal path, powered by a channel-dedicated 12-bit ADC with no sample rate limitations. The high-definition mode (HD) enhances vertical resolution to a remarkable 18 bit for unwavering accuracy in every measurement. With ultra-low noise and a highly sensitive frontend, the offset voltage can be driven up to ±5 V at the highest sensitivity. Get precise results and greater versatility.
Seamlessly optimized to work alongside you
Do you need more bench space? The MXO 5C with 2 HU and only 405 mm depth, can be placed on your desk with up to 50 kg stacked on top. Alternatively, if your bench area is full, place it beneath your desk and connect it to a display for easy operation through the web browser.

Easily access your oscilloscope remotely
Do you need access to a remote oscilloscope? Are you working from home and need to take measurements? Do you need to collaborate across geographical or company boundaries? All MXO 5C instruments incorporate a built-in web browser. Security and documentation features come standard. Even with a MXO 5C, a virtual front panel display is available with same knobs and buttons that are on the MXO 5.
Interact with your oscilloscope in an easy way
Do you need to develop oscilloscope test applications or download waveforms and/or measurement values for analysis in other applications? All MXO 5C models come standard with a 1 Gbit LAN connection for fast and easy interaction.
Spectrum analysis
The MXO5C also offers outstanding spectrum analysis – fastest in its class with up to four analyses simultaneously.
During spectrum analysis, a signal in the time domain is converted to a spectrum of frequencies. A basic spectrum waveform can be displayed quickly. By defining additional parameters, the waveform can be configured in more detail.
Customize to your specific application
Rohde & Schwarz offers a variety of options to customize the MXO5C to your specific application.
- MXO5C-B1 – Mixed signal analysis with two RT-ZL04 logic probes
