Highest performance mid-range vector network analyzer (VNA) that helps you increase yields with less guard band:

• 300 kHz to 13.5 GHz
• 2- or 4-ports with single built-in sources
• 133 dB system dynamic range, 32,001 points, 200 channels, 15 MHz IF bandwidth
• High output power (+13 dBm)
• Low noise floor of -120 dBm (10 Hz IF bandwidth)

Agilent’s N5231A PNA-L microwave vector network analyzer (VNA) offers design and manufacturing engineers the highest-performance mid-range VNA. PNA-L is the world’s best value for microwave manufacturing with accurate S-parameters at a budget-friendly cost along with future-proof capabilities. The PNA-L family is designed for passive components and simple active device measurements of amplifier and frequency converters.

Agilent’s PNA-L VNAs are available in five frequency models. Three frequency models, start at 300 kHz, with two or four ports available for the 13.5- and 20-GHz models, and two ports available for the 8.5-GHz product. The other two frequency models with two ports, start at 10 MHz, and include the 43.5- and 50-GHz products.

The N523xA PNA-L VNA replaces and is 100% compatible with the existing N5230C, which means there is no change to your setup or test codes.
