Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
The Keysight N5247B-423 is a PNA-X series microwave vector network analyzer configured as a 4-port system with advanced internal routing and dual sources. The N5247B platform covers 900 Hz to 67 GHz. It is used for S-parameter characterization, component and subsystem verification, and automated RF design validation. Typical rental use cases include measuring gain, return loss, isolation, and group delay on high frequency amplifiers, filters, cables, and multiport devices, and setting up advanced nonlinear or frequency conversion measurements when the correct options are installed.
Option 423 is a 4-port, dual source configuration with an extended power range, source and receiver attenuators, bias tees, a combiner, mechanical switches, and additional access loops. The internal second source provides an additional signal for two-tone intermodulation testing of amplifiers or as a local oscillator for testing mixers and frequency converters. The mechanical switches and access loops make it easier to reconfigure internal signal paths for advanced measurements without building a complex external RF routing network.
Two-tone testing requires two RF tones that can be coordinated to evaluate intermodulation products and compression behavior. With option 423, the PNA-X can route source 1 and source 2 through an internal combiner and switches, creating a cleaner and more repeatable two-tone setup with less external combining hardware. This is useful for amplifier linearity screening and for building automated workflows where you need to repeat the same tone spacing and stimulus levels across multiple DUTs.
Calibration depends on connector interface, frequency range, and DUT topology. Common approaches include SOLT with a mechanical calibration kit, TRL when fixtures support transmission line standards, and electronic calibration when available. For 4-port work, make sure your method covers all the port pairings you plan to measure. Use stable test cables, torque connectors correctly, and verify calibration with a known device. At higher frequencies, connector care is part of calibration quality, so inspection and proper handling are essential.
Yes. PNA family analyzers support remote control and automation so you can run sweeps, change switch states, and save results programmatically. Common exports include Touchstone S-parameter files, screenshots, and tabular data for post-processing in RF design tools and scripting environments. For production style screening, you can sequence calibrations, verify power levels, and log pass or fail limits across many DUTs. If your workflow requires pulsed, noise, or frequency offset style measurements, confirm the rental configuration includes the needed licenses and options.
The N5247B Option 423 includes an internal second source, a combiner, and mechanical switches that enable two-tone intermodulation distortion testing without external signal combining equipment. The combiner allows both internal sources to drive port 1 simultaneously, creating the two-tone stimulus needed for IMD measurements on amplifiers and other active devices. Application software S93087B provides dedicated intermodulation distortion measurement capability, while the mechanical switches automatically route the combiner in and out as needed for different measurement configurations across the full 10 MHz to 67 GHz frequency range.
Allow warm-up and temperature stabilization, then keep the cabling mechanically stable during sweeps. Use source and receiver attenuation to keep receivers in range and to manage DUT drive levels without overdriving the front end. Always use correct torque and avoid worn connectors. For multiport devices, keep a consistent port mapping and label cables so re-connecting does not change the reference plane. If you see drift or unexpected ripple, re-verify calibration standards and inspect for damaged cables or adapters.
Choose the 4-port N5247B-423 when you need simultaneous multiport S-parameters, when your DUT is a coupler, switch, multiport module, or network that benefits from fewer reconnections, or when you want routing flexibility from the access loops and mechanical switches included with option 423. Dual internal sources also make nonlinear and converter measurements easier to configure. A 2-port VNA can be sufficient for simple 2-port devices and may be more cost efficient if you do not need multiport coverage or the advanced internal routing features.
