The S-2 plug-in sampling head provides a single GR-874 50 Ω input with a 75 ps risetime. The S-2 can be used in the 7000 series and 3S series of sampling plug-ins. The S-2 provides an internal trigger pickoff signal for internal triggering. Noise is specified as less than 10 mV.

When the S-2 was first introduced, the rise-time specification was 50 ps, but that was not achieved in practice, so the rise-time specification was revised to be 75 ps.
