The Agilent N5247A is a PNA-X series vector network analyzer covering 10 MHz to 67 GHz. The N5247A is offered with multiple test set configurations, including 2-port (Option 200) and 4-port (Option 400) base units, with optional extended power range, internal second source, mechanical switches, and high-accuracy noise figure measurement hardware (Option 029).
The N5247A is used for measurements that include S-parameter network analysis, reflection and transmission measurements, group delay measurements, and — with Option 029 — high-accuracy noise figure measurements. The instrument's specifications cover dynamic accuracy verification through compression-over-frequency and IF linearity measurements, and the analyzer supports both filtered and high-power source modes for harmonic management versus output power optimization.
ValueTronics International, LLC has supported test and measurement professionals since 1992 from our 20,000 square foot warehouse and testing facility at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every {{CONDITION}} N5247A passing through our facility is handled by our in-house team — not drop-shipped from a third party — which is why the documentation, accessory verification, and post-sale support our customers receive on RF and microwave instruments at this level reflect a direct relationship with the people who stocked, evaluated, and shipped the unit.
The N5247A was introduced under the Agilent Technologies brand. Agilent's electronic test and measurement business was transferred to Keysight Technologies in 2014, and the PNA-X product family has continued under Keysight since that transition. Agilent itself was originally spun off from Hewlett-Packard in 1999.
