Actually I take it back: For the series 6B spec page... Real-time: 50 GS/s (2 channels), 25 GS/s (4 channels), 12.5 GS/s (> 4 channels) Interpolated: 2.5 TS/s

Yeah, I used to work at Tektronix, this looks like an A unit.

Also, the 50GS/s is actually more like 25GS/s as it has a Nyquist frequency of 12.5 GHz. This is because they take 2 samples at the same time, instead of 180 degrees out of phase. I wish they had made that clearer to customers, it felt misleading to some.
