Description
Each extra box on a microwave bench adds cables, calibration steps and uncertainty. The Keysight N5247B network analyzer folds sources, receivers and pulse hardware into one PNA-X, so it reaches 67 GHz from a single chassis. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale, and it arranges service on request.

| Test-port connector | 1.85 mm, 50 ohm |
What the integrated hardware replaces
The PNA-X design puts flexible internal sources, receivers, pulse hardware and access loops inside one chassis. As a result, you need fewer external boxes on the bench. S-parameter, gain-compression, noise-figure and nonlinear workflows then run on the same platform. However, options and licenses decide which of them a given unit can run.
Jobs for the Keysight N5247B network analyzer
Typical jobs include millimeter-wave amplifier and front-end characterization, as well as mixer and frequency-converter testing. Teams also measure components and interconnects to 67 GHz. In addition, aerospace, defense, satellite and wireless R&D groups use the platform.
Handle the 1.85 mm ports with care
Connectors at this size are small, so they punish rough handling. Keep them clean, mate them with a torque wrench and match the calibration kit to the connector type. However, a damaged port can spoil every sweep. Therefore ask Lost in HCM which adapters, cables and kit come with the offer.
Check the options before you rent or buy
Installed hardware, options, modules and licenses change what the analyzer can do. Lifecycle status can also affect availability. Therefore the serial-number configuration and the formal quote take precedence. Then review the sources, receiver paths, pulse capability and licensed applications against your test plan.
Rental or purchase through Lost in HCM
A rental fits a validation project, a production peak or a stand-in while your own unit is away. However, a purchase fits a lab that runs nonlinear tests every week. To order the Keysight N5247B network analyzer, first request a quote from Lost in HCM with your frequency range, port count and dates. You can also open the network analyzer listings, visit Keysight or contact SMK Vietnam.
N5247B questions
Which connector do the test ports use?
The test ports use 1.85 mm, 50 ohm connectors, so match your cables and calibration kit to them.
How many internal sources can it have?
It offers up to three sources, depending on the configuration, so ask for the one you need.
Can one unit replace a noise-figure setup?
It supports noise-figure and nonlinear workflows, but installed options and licenses decide what a unit can run.
