Keysight / Agilent N5230A Network Analyzer
The Keysight / Agilent N5230A Network Analyzer stands out as a premier solution for measuring multi-port and balanced components such as filters, duplexers, and RF modules with precision and speed up to 50 GHz, depending on the options selected. This analyzer includes an innovative automatic port extension feature, allowing effortless correction for fixtures during in-fixture device measurements, ensuring both simplicity and accuracy in results.
Further enhancing its versatility, the configurable test set (optional) provides direct access to the signal paths between the analyzer's internal source and its test ports. This capability significantly improves instrument sensitivity for detecting low-level signals and allows for the reconfiguration of the directional coupler to optimize dynamic range. Additionally, it presents opportunities for integrating extra components or peripherals for various applications, including high-power measurements.
Experience an expanded source output range with the optional extended power range feature, which incorporates a 60 dB step attenuator in the RF source path, offering over 80 dB of output power. This flexibility is essential when stimulating the device under test.
