Siglent SNA5002A 9 kHz ~ 4.5 GHz Vector Network Analyzer
The Siglent SNA5030A is a 2-port vector network analyzer with a frequency range from 9 kHz to 4.5 GHz, designed for precision RF and microwave measurements. With a dynamic range up to 125 dB and fine resolution of 1 Hz frequency and 0.05 dB level, it provides accurate S-parameter, time-domain, and mixed-domain analysis for demanding applications.
Featuring a large 12.1-inch touchscreen display, advanced calibration methods (SOLT, TRL, enhanced response), and measurement functions including impedance conversion, gain compression, mixer testing, and spectrum analysis, the SNA5002A is ideal for R&D, production, and academic use. LAN, USB, SCPI, and web server support ensure seamless integration into automated test systems.
Siglent SNA5002A 2-Port Vector Network Analyzer
The Siglent SNA5002A is a high-performance 2-port vector network analyzer (VNA) that covers a broad frequency range from 9 kHz up to 4.5 GHz, making it suitable for advanced RF and microwave component testing. Designed for both research laboratories and production environments, this analyzer combines measurement accuracy, speed, and user-friendly operation in a compact form factor.
High-Performance Hardware
Equipped with a 12.1-inch multi-touch display, the SNA5032A provides intuitive operation with multi-window and multi-format viewing. Engineers can visualize Smith charts, magnitude/phase plots, and time-domain results simultaneously for a deeper understanding of device behavior.
Key hardware specifications include:
-
Frequency resolution: 1 Hz
-
Output level range: –55 dBm to +10 dBm
-
Level resolution: 0.05 dB
-
Dynamic range: up to 125 dB

Advanced Measurement Capabilities
The SNA5002A supports a comprehensive set of measurements, including scattering parameters (S-parameters), differential-parameter analysis, time-domain measurements (TDR), and spectrum analysis. With a dynamic range of up to 125 dB, engineers can perform highly accurate characterization of filters, amplifiers, antennas, and other RF devices. It offers multiple sweep modes — linear frequency, logarithmic frequency, power sweep, CW-time, and segment sweep — giving users flexibility for different test scenarios. Enhanced calibration options such as SOLT, TRL, and enhanced response correction improve reliability by reducing systematic errors during critical measurements.
