The Agilent E8358A is a 300 kHz to 9 GHz vector network analyzer from the PNA Series, engineered to deliver speed and precision for component testing. Outfitted with a 2-port configuration, it natively supports advanced measurements for active devices and in-fixture components by integrating standard bias-tees, standard direct receiver access for extended dynamic range, and four-receiver enabled TRL/LRM calibration capabilities.
