The Tektronix PG503 is a high speed pulse generator plug-in for the TM500 system.

It produces complementary pulse outputs on SMA connectors in the front panel.

PG503 engineer Fred Kawabata states

The product was based on the PG502 but with much faster risetime using a Gallium Arsenide IC developed at Tek Labs.
