MSO2000X-BW1MT3M 300MHz Bandwidth Upgrade
Overview
The MSO2000X-BW1MT3M upgrades your MSO2104X from 100MHz to 300MHz bandwidth — capturing faster edges and higher-frequency content without replacing the instrument. The upgrade is a software license key; the hardware already supports 300MHz.
A 100MHz oscilloscope faithfully reproduces signals up to roughly 100MHz. Clock signals, digital buses, or switching transients with content above that are attenuated — rounded edges, reduced amplitude. Upgrading to 300MHz gives you the headroom to see what's actually happening.
Key Features
- 100MHz → 300MHz Bandwidth — Upgrades all analog channels on your MSO2104X.
- Faster Rise Times — Higher bandwidth means accurately capturing faster edges — critical for signal integrity on high-speed interfaces.
- No Hardware Changes — Bandwidth is software-defined. Enter the key and operate at 300MHz immediately.
- Instant Activation — System → Options → Install. No reboot, no factory calibration.
- Investment Protection — Start with a lower bandwidth at a lower price, upgrade as requirements grow.
When You Need This
Growing Requirements
A new project needs more than 100MHz bandwidth. Upgrade instead of buying a new oscilloscope.
Signal Integrity
Compliance testing requires capturing fast edges accurately. The 300MHz upgrade gives you bandwidth to see the true signal shape.
Compatible Instruments
This upgrade applies only to the MSO2104X (100MHz). Not needed if your instrument already has 300MHz bandwidth or higher.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which model does this apply to?
Exclusively the MSO2104X (100MHz). If your instrument already has 300MHz bandwidth or higher, this upgrade is not needed.
Does bandwidth affect sample rate or memory?
No. Sample rate and memory depth are unchanged. Only analog bandwidth is unlocked.
How is this option activated?
You receive a license key after purchase. Enter the key in the instrument's menu under System → Options → Install. The capability is available immediately — no reboot, no hardware modification, no factory service required.
Is the license permanent or subscription-based?
All UNI-T software option licenses are permanent, one-time purchases. Once activated, the option remains available for the life of the instrument. No annual renewals or subscription fees.
