STO-0809300-R-E1

F-Band VNA Frequency Extender

Receive (Rx) Module, 5.63 to 8.75 GHz Input

STO-0809300-R-E1 is a compact F-Band vector network

analyzer (VNA) frequency extender receive (Rx) module that

extends lower frequency VNA signals to 90 to 140 GHz. It is

compatible with modern vector network analyzers such as

Rohde & Schwarz ZNA, Anritsu VectorStar™, Keysight PNA-X

Series, and Copper Mountain CobaltFx. The VNA needs dual

sources to be extended. This frequency extender can be used

to measure one-path transmission (S21 or S12) through DUT

when paired with compatible transmitter. When Rx module is

paired with Tx/Rx module, the setup can be used to measure

reflection at input of DUT and transmission through DUT. An AC

to DC Power adapter and

Proxi-Flange™ Contactless Flanges

(STQ-WG-08010-FB-CF and STQ-WG-08025-FB-CF), are

included. The Eravant calibration kit (

STQ-TO-08-S1-CKIT1)

and

Wave-Glide™ Rail System (STQ-TL-RW-S10-M1) are

highly recommended to complete the F-Band VNA test set. VNA

extender is packaged individually in a rugged equipment box

with additional hardware and tools.
