Agilent ENA-L RF Network Analyzers

Solid performance in an easy to use, low-cost RF network analyzer

The Agilent ENA-L network analyzers provide basic vector network analysis in a wide range of industries and applications such as wireless communication, cable TV, automotive, education, and more. Designed to reduce tune and test times, these analyzers provide increased throughput to improve your measurement productivity. The affordably priced ENA-L, equipped with the core functions of the industry-standard ENA, includes many easy-to-use features and is optimized for efficient measurements and high reliability.

Key Features and Specifications

• Frequency ranges: 300 kHz to 1.5 GHz (E5061A), 300 kHz to 3 GHz (E5062A)
• Integrated T/R or S-parameter test set
• 50 or 75 ohm test port impedance
• 115 dB dynamic range and 0.005 dB rms trace noise
• 10.4-inch color LCD, Optional touch screen
• GPIB/Handler IO/LAN/USB

Fundamental performance with versatile general-purpose test capabilities

The ENA-L, with its 115 dB dynamic range and 0.005 dB rms trace noise, provides the accuracy and speed required for many network measurement applications. The wide 30 kHz IF bandwidth (IFBW) and powerful digital processing provide unprecedented measurement speed. The S-parameter test set options offer full two-port calibration for optimum accuracy (Option 250 or 275).

A variety of sweep functions for effective analysis

Power sweep and three types of frequency functions provide effective analysis to suit your application needs such as:

• Power sweep to analyze active devices such as amplifiers
• Linear sweep to evaluate narrow-band devices such as filters
• Log sweep to evaluate broadband devices such as cables
• Segment sweep allows you to tailor the sweep condition with up to 201 sweep segments

Multi-channel measurement display capability speeds your component evaluation

Display up to four traces per measurement channel and evaluate all four S-parameters of a two-port device at the same time. Each of the ENA-L’s four measurement channels can have independent measurement settings such as frequency range, enabling you to compare traces with different measurement conditions. In total, the ENA-L allows you to display and analyze 16 traces simultaneously!

Customize ENA-L with VBA

ENA-L’s built-in VBA programming function allows you to automate measurement procedures and easily create a graphic user interface, tailored for your measurement needs. A test program can be developed with the built-in editor or on an external PC with Visual Basic® (VB).
