What I do have however is the S-53 Trigger Recognizer and the S-2 Sampling Head, which provides me with a sampling setup with a 75 ps rise time. That equals to about 4.66 Ghz bandwidth.
That weird connector on the sampling head is a GR 874. It may look bend, but it's not. In the world of GR 874 there is no male or female, everything can mate with everything else. I might have cables. But luckily I have plenty BNC adapters

It's so satisfying to dial right into the kink (of the cable).

20 ps time base 👀
(okay that's a bit meaningless if I "only" have 4.66 Ghz Bandwidth)
The plugin overshoots a bit on the time axis and there is this weird glow. Needs a bit of work, but otherwise everything works fine so far. Let's not yet talk about calibrating it, please
It's really hard to take good pictures of this CRT

Sampling is a technique to resolve repeating signals that would otherwise be too fast. The signal is sampled at certain intervals over many periods to reconstruct the waveform.
The most bandwidth I can cough up so far without these tricks is around ~200 Mhz ish with my hacked Siglent SDS 1104X-E DSO.
I once acquired a ton of calibration equipment from the Tektronix facility in Heerenveen. I need to flip the bulk of it. I want to do at least simple fail / pass tests with these units, but otherwise not touch the calibration. And for that I needed the extra bandwidth.
Enter the first calibration unit: The TG 501 Time Mark Generator.
It does what it says: generate pulses at fixed intervals to calibrate the time base of oscilloscopes

TM500 is a Plugin based instrumentation platform by Tektronix.
Man, these guys really loved their plug-ins

The mainframe provides a PNP/NPN transistor pair and two isolated 25 V AC windings for each bay, as well as common 17.5V AC, and common unregulated 11.5 V and +- 33.5V
