Siglent SNA5000-MT Material measurement license option

SIGLENT SNA5000-MT Material Measurement Option

The SNA5000-MT option enables advanced Material Measurement capabilities on SIGLENT SNA5000A Series Vector Network Analyzers. This option allows precise characterization of dielectric properties such as permittivity, permeability, and loss tangent of solid, liquid, and sheet materials across a wide frequency range.

By integrating material measurement directly into the SNA5000A platform, engineers and researchers can evaluate RF and microwave material properties without dedicated material analyzers, making it ideal for laboratories, universities, and industrial R&D environments.
