Use the Right Vector Network Analyzer for the Job

Keysight E5071C ENA users chose their platform because they needed the absolute best tool of its time for the job. But much has changed since then. Today’s devices are becoming highly integrated, requiring more than S-parameter measurements. As device characterization demands more measurement types, higher frequencies, and tighter tolerances, you need to adapt to the current situation and future-proof against new challenges. Gain deeper confidence in your measurements wherever you are with proven hardware and advanced software.

Find the Model Tailored to Your Exact Needs

The E5081A ENA-X vector network analyzer (VNA) offers advanced integrated noise receivers, direct receiver access, and modulated distortion software on a single test setup, enabling component characterization under high power, complex modulation schemes up to 44 GHz. These features consolidate the design verification setup necessary to conduct reliable characterization, minimizing test cycle time.

The E5080B ENA VNA brings excellent performance up to 53 GHz and flexibility to a midrange platform. It provides complete passive and active component characterization in a single instrument.

Keysight P50xxB Streamline Series network analyzers bring high-end performance of benchtop instruments into a compact form factor. It’s easy to share these instruments between test locations to make the same measurements reliably.

The M980xA PXIe VNA is a completely independent VNA with 2-, 4- or 6-ports, and the modules are easily configured as a true multiport VNA. A VNA with up to 50-ports can be configured in a single chassis for multiport applications.
