Test set options

One of the following test set options must be selected.
Standard configuration (Option 700)
– The standard configuration is the basic test set
configuration, which does not include signal conditioning
devices such as amplifiers.
Add amplifiers for improved dynamic range (Option 001)
– Option 001 adds an amplifier between each test port coupler
and the receiver switch to improve system dynamic range. It
is primarily offered for test sets with solid-state switches, to
compensate for insertion loss.
Add amplifiers and bias-tees (Option 002)
– Option 002 adds an amplifier between each test port coupler
and the receiver switch to improve system dynamic range,
and adds bias-tees for all test ports on the test set as well as
the analyzer. It is primarily offered for test sets with solid-
state switches to compensate for insertion loss.

Interface kits

The interface kit includes a set of semi-rigid RF jumper cables
and two pairs of rear locking feet that connect and lock the
analyzer and the test set together. When ordering a multiport
test set, the analyzer that is used with the test set must
be specified to add one of the following interface kits. The
availability depends on the test set model. There are following
three interface kit models based on the jumper connector layouts
on the test set. Therefore, only one interface kit model ("PX",
"PN", or "PL") is available on each test set. Each interface kit
model has one digit suffix indicating the connector type; 1 for
1.85 mm, 2 for 2.4 mm and 3 for 3.5 mm (or SMA).

Millimeter-wave measurements

N5290/91A single-sweep millimeter-wave
solutions
PNA (N522xB) and PNA-X (N524xB) network analyzers can
be transformed into single-sweep solutions that operate from
900 Hz to 110 GHz (N5290A), or up to 120 GHz with over-range
capability to 125 GHz (N5291A). The N5290/91A solutions come
fully configured around the PNA/PNA-X network analyzers,
and include a millimeter-wave test set controller (N5292A),
frequency-extender modules (N5293/95AXxx), and the
necessary cables to allow users to make either 2- or 4-port
measurements over the entire frequency range. The broadband
N5290/91A millimeter-wave solutions provide high-performance
measurement capability complimented by measurement
applications from the PNA/PNA-X that include pulsed-RF, gain
compression, 4-port true-differential, scalar mixer/converter
measurements, and spectrum analysis.
Banded waveguide solutions to 1.5 THz
Banded waveguide millimeter-wave solutions cover waveguide
bands from 50 GHz to 1.5 THz. A 2- or 4-port PNA or PNA-X in
conjunction with an N5292A millimeter-wave controller (with
either a 2- or 4-port option), provides complete millimeter-wave
solutions. These systems are configured with a PNA or PNA-X
which has IF inputs (Option 020), and a configurable test set
(one of Options 201/217/219/222/224/401/417/419/422/42. In
addition, frequency-offset capability is required from one of
software models 93029/080/082/083/084/086/087/089/090x/
093/094A. When configured with the N5292A millimeter-wave
controller, a special cable adapter will be required to connect
the RF, LO, and IF signals from the banded millimeter-wave
extenders to the controller. A separate DC power supply is also
required to power the frequency extenders.
For a complete list of millimeter-wave products and options, and
ordering instructions, please refer to the N5290/91A Millimeter-
Wave Network Analyzer Configuration Guide (5992-2179EN),
and the Banded Millimeter-Wave Network Analyzers to 1.5 THz
Technical Overview (5992-2177EN).
