Keysight Launches New High-Bandwidth VNA Extender
Wednesday, December 3, 2025 at 06:40 AM
Keysight has introduced an extender for its high-bandwidth Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) that enables a single-sweep measurement range from 100 kHz to 250 GHz, a feature beneficial for advanced equipment manufacturing.
Context
On September 9, 2025, Keysight Technologies launched new frequency extenders, including the NA5307A, that push its Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) measurement capabilities up to 250 GHz. This enables fully calibrated, single-sweep testing from as low as 100 kHz to 250 GHz, a major leap from the previous 110/120 GHz ceiling. The new accessories are designed as upgrades for existing customers, simplifying test setups for next-generation semiconductors and high-speed interconnects while protecting prior investments.
This launch strategically positions Keysight to capitalize on critical industry trends. As AI and high-performance computing drive the need for 1.6 Tb/s and 3.2 Tb/s data communication networks, and as 6G research moves into sub-THz frequencies, demand for advanced testing solutions is surging. By providing the necessary tools to validate these next-generation components and partnering with probe makers like FormFactor and MPI Corp., Keysight is solidifying its essential role in the advanced technology supply chain.
