Re: 16517a maximum signal speed
That's what I'm trying to determine, if the 1-4Ghz is talking analog sampling or digital sampling.? What is the maximum digital signal speed (i.e. 1's and 0's) I can expect the card to be able to reproduce with the internal 4Ghz clock?

The timing and state sampling speeds as described in the 16517A /
16518A are all in terms of the digital signal acquisition.
Timing Modes:
The 16517A/18A has two timing modes. In full-channel timing mode, data
is sampled at up to 2 GHz. In half-channel timing mode, data is
sampled at 4 GHz.
Synchronous State Mode:
In the full-channel state mode, a synchronous external clock running
at speeds up to 1 GHz can be used as the sample clock. In addition,
the sample point can be offset to ensure a sample where you know data
is valid.
Not only can you sample at the external clock transitions, but you can
set the analyzer to oversample, in powers of two, up to 32x, or, up to
a maximum of 2 GHz sample rate. Each point of oversampling is
precisely distributed evenly within the external clock period.

Keysight says 8x-10x for "today's(2017) complex signals." See below for a discussion.
Each module may have its own series of limitations, like which bits are active (0-3 in your case?), and the sample rate of 128k bytes. Check your user reference manual to be sure.
At the higher frequencies, I'd be fairly concerned about probing and how you're going about getting access on your target to those signals. I'm not familiar with that module's specific probing options, but there's associated restrictions that you should research.
Hope that helps,
Keith

Sorry I cannot test at this moment in time as I cannot lay my hands on a

?
Please note the connectors on each end of a HP-HIL keyboards are different
and are designated as 1 spot? or 2 spot
?
The 1 spot goes into the HP-HIL keyboards
And the 2 spot goes into the HP-HIL socket on the HP 70004
?
Please note the keyboard might have a 2 spot socket in addition to the
1 spot this is for other equipment?
?
digekey do have the connectors and I should be able to re list them again
after Easter

please also note that there are about 5 different HP-HIL keyboards and possibly
only 2 of them are QWERTY
for example there is a French one
