The SNA5006X-E is a two-port, 6.5 GHz vector network analyzer (VNA) designed for RF and microwave R&D, manufacturing, and educational labs. Within the series, it offers the same core measurement capabilities, calibration options, and user interface as the other models, but its upper frequency makes it suitable for precise characterization of filters, amplifiers, antennas, and passive components, making it a high-performance solution for modern RF design and test workflows.
In production or automated test setups, the SNA5000X-E series enables one-click filter characteristic analysis to quickly obtain key specs like insertion loss and bandwidth. It also supports custom formulas and can be remotely controlled through SCPI or its built-in WebServer, helping integrate it into automated systems while keeping testing efficient and consistent.
The SIGLENT SNA5000X-E series of Vector Network Analyzers includes two models ranging from 9 kHz up to 6.5 GHz and supports 2-port scattering parameter, differential-parameter, and time-domain parameter measurements. The series is effective for determining the Q-factor, bandwidth, and insertion loss of a filter. Features include impedance conversion, measurement plane movement, fixture simulation, adapter removal/insertion adjustments, and scattering-parameter correction including SOLT, SOLR, TRL, Response, and Enhanced Response.
What makes the SNA5000X-E series useful for filter characterization?
The SNA5000X-E series is ideal for determining filter Q-factor, bandwidth, and insertion loss. It features impedance conversion, movement of measurement planes, limit testing, ripple testing, fixture simulation, and adapter removal/insertion adjustments.
What optional functions are available for the SNA5000X-E series?
The SNA5000X-E series can be upgraded with a high-performance reference source (SNA5000-HPR) for handling higher RF power, ideal for power amplifier testing or component stress testing. Optional software includes time-domain and TDR tools (SNA5000-TDR) to identify impedance changes, isolate fixtures, and locate faults. A spectrum analysis option (SNA5000-SA) is also available for occupied bandwidth, channel power, and noise measurements.
What correction features do the SNA5000X-E series provide?
Several correction features are available to reduce errors introduced by test cables and fixtures, including automatic fixture removal, de-embedding, port extension, and impedance conversion.
