Rohde & Schwarz ZNBT Spec Sheet
Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
The R&S ZNBT26 covers a frequency range of 100 kHz to 26.5 GHz. This wide frequency coverage makes it suitable for characterizing RF and microwave components across multiple bands, from low-frequency circuits to millimeter-wave applications.
The ZNBT26 base unit provides 8 test ports with 2.92 mm male ruggedized connectors and 50 ohm impedance. The system can be expanded to support up to 24 ports with optional port extension modules, enabling comprehensive multiport device characterization.
The ZNBT26 offers excellent dynamic range performance across its entire frequency span. From 10 MHz to 5 GHz, it provides at least 120 dB dynamic range (typical 135 dB), while maintaining at least 115 dB from 5 GHz to 10 GHz and at least 110 dB from 10 GHz to 26.5 GHz at 10 Hz measurement bandwidth.
The ZNBT26 offers measurement bandwidths from 1 Hz to 1 MHz in standard configuration, with optional increased bandwidth extending to 10 MHz. The bandwidth can be adjusted in 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 5, and 7 steps, providing flexibility to optimize measurement speed versus noise floor performance.
Measurement speed depends on configuration, but the ZNBT26 achieves impressive performance with sweep times under 3.5 ms for 201 measurement points at 900 MHz center frequency with 1 MHz measurement bandwidth. For high-accuracy measurements, acquisition time per point is 7.5 microseconds in CW mode.
The ZNBT26 provides 1 Hz frequency resolution, allowing extremely precise frequency domain measurements. The static frequency accuracy is determined by aging rate, temperature drift, and calibration accuracy, with standard aging of plus or minus 1 x 10 to the minus 6 per year.
Yes, the ZNBT26 supports 2 to 100001 measurement points per trace. However, the maximum number of sweep points may vary depending on the number of ports involved in the measurement. This high point density enables detailed characterization of complex frequency responses with fine resolution.
The ZNBT26 features 2.92 mm male ruggedized connectors on all test ports. These precision connectors support the full 26.5 GHz frequency range and are designed for durability in production and laboratory environments where frequent connect and disconnect cycles occur.
