Who buys the ultra-expensive test equipment, and what's it used for?
nctnico:
Or take something simple like Bluetooth. FCC wants this tested for spurious up to 26.5GHz! CE radiated immunity testing goes up to 6GHz nowadays.
coppercone2:
and then there is the guy that wants future proofing, because he has a gut feeling that the consumer standards might change in the near future and they wanna be prepared for problems!!!!
or just they wanna give the customer more confidence by extending it because he thinks people might be curious because of how that little wiggle near the end of the graph looked like it might make someone scared! You measured to 3GHz, your chinese competitor can measure it to 5GHz then you get screwed out of a sale so then preemptively it get measured to some number you think the other guy can't afford!

Also, R&S will provide it's customers with paid support and training, which Siglent customers don't get.

The $380,000 price difference can buy you a LOT of training, if needed.

Yes, really. I had to put commercial products with Bluetooth radios through FCC part 15 certification at my last job. The defense-related products I work on at my current job get tested for radiated immunity up to 40 GHz; EMC testing for a single product can cost over $50k at the outside lab.
