Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox RF Vector Network Analyzer, 2 MHz to 4 GHz/6 GHz

Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox RF Vector Network Analyzer, 2 MHz to 4 GHz/6 GHz

Product Documentation

Description

A standard Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox RF Vector Network Analyzer provides T/R measurements, or S11 and S21, with magnitude and phase. Adding Option 122 (full 2-port S-parameters) allows two-port cal and measurement of all 4 S-parameters at the same time.

Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox VNA contains four independent,  sensitive receivers. The receivers provide  more than 100 dB of dynamic range for vector  measurements of high rejection, narrowband devices such RF filters. The receivers also make possible full 2-port error correction with the Unknown Thru method, allowing you to  measure non-insertable devices.

Using Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox´s vector voltmeter (VVM), similar to the 8508A, the phase shift and electrical length of a device can be measured. The VVM option also provides ratio measurements of two channels, A/B or B/A.

Keysight (Agilent) N9923A FieldFox´s other application include distance-to-fault and VSWR testing, absolute power measurements, and characterization of 75-ohm cable TV devices.

Keysight (Agilent) N9923A Measurement Capabilities:

  • Vector network analysis:
    • Provides accurate network analysis of RF components and enables you to measure and display all four S-parameters simultaneously, with a single connection. This means you can quickly and accurately characterize the device under test, using a handheld instrument.
  • Cable and antenna test:
    • Fifty to sixty percent of cell site problems are caused by faulty cables, connectors, and antennas. Degraded feed lines cause poor coverage, unnecessary handovers, paging failures and access failures on the uplink. To avoid service quality problems, it is critical to keep the cell sites’ cable and antenna systems in good condition.Use FieldFox to make return loss, VSWR, insertion loss/transmission, one-port cable loss, and distance-to-fault (DTF) measurements. You can test antennas, cables, filters, and amplifiers with a single handheld instrument.
  • Return loss and DTF measurements:
    • FieldFox can make return loss and distance-to-fault measurements at the same time. It helps you correlate overall system degradation with specific faults in the cable and antenna system. The built-in cable editor allows you to edit existing cable types on-site, and save them as new cable types with user defined names.
  • Transmission test:
    • Transmission tests are used to accurately measure cable loss, insertion loss (filters) and amplifier gain (tower mounted amplifier). FieldFox offers 2-port transmission magnitude and phase measurements with a typical dynamic range of 100 dB.
  • One-port Cable Loss:
    • For already-installed cables, FieldFox accurately measures one-port cable loss. The instrument measures the actual cable loss, without the need for additional computations.
  • Time domain:
    • Using the time domain feature, you can display reflection or transmission coefficients versus time. Time domain gating can be used to remove unwanted responses such as connector mismatch or cable discontinuities.
  • Interference rejection:
    • The FieldFox RF VNA interference rejection mode is able to make reliable return loss and distance-to-fault measurements of cable and antenna systems under high interference signal environments. It can make valid measurements for interference signals coupled into the system up to +16 dBm.
  • Power meter:
    • Makes accurate true average power measurements without the need for a power meter. The state-of-the-art Agilent USB power sensors provide measurements up to 24 GHz.
  • Smith charts can be used to display impedance matching characteristics in cable and antenna systems.
  • The large vector voltmeter display makes it easy to match two or more device’s electric length and ensure signals that travel on different devices have the same delay.
