Question Answer
1. What is included with a base
N991xA/N995xA analyzer?
– The base model includes the cable and antenna analyzer
– Measurements: DTF (dB, linear, VSWR), return loss and DTF, return loss (dB), and 1-port cable loss
– Calibrations: CalReady, OSL, and response cal
Note: 2-port insertion loss is NOT included with the base model, if 2-port insertion loss is needed, order Option 210
Note: There is no phase information with the base analyzer, to obtain S11 or S21 phase, order Option 210
2. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 233?
– Basic spectrum analysis, four traces, different detector types, radio standard selection, limit lines
– Channel power, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel power
– AM/FM tune and listen, field strength measurements, antenna factors, frequency counter marker
– Tracking generator (TG)/Independent source:
– TG CW mode (source CW frequency can be set independent of SA frequency) - included
– TG CW coupled mode (source CW frequency is autocoupled to SA’s center frequency) - included
– TG tracking mode (traditional TG operation, swept SA coupled to swept source) - (requires Option 210)
3. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 236?
– Interference analyzer and spectrogram
– Trace playback and recording
4. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 210?
– Option 210 adds a VNA with transmission/reflection (T/R) capability
– Measurements: S21, S11, magnitude and phase
– Additionally, in the CAT mode, you can measure 2-port insertion loss
– Calibrations: CalReady, OSL, response, and enhanced response cal
– If you need all four S-parameters, order Options 210 and 211
– If you need 2-port cal, order Options 210 and 211
– Adds tracking mode to the tracking generator/independent source included with Option 233, spectrum
analyzer
5. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 211?
– Option 211 adds full 2-port S-parameter capability to the VNA mode
– Measurements: All four S-parameters (S11, S21, S22, S12), magnitude and phase
– Calibrations: CalReady, OSL, response, enhanced response, and full 2-port cal
6. Can I measure group delay on
N991xA/N995xA analyzers?
If you have phase measurement capability, then you can measure group delay. Option 210 is required for any phase
measurement capability. So if you do not have Option 210, you cannot measure group delay.
7. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 010?
– S11/S21 in time domain, if Option 210 is ordered. To get time domain data for all four S-parameters and full
2-port cal, order Option 211.
– View both time and frequency domain data at the same time
– Low-pass, impulse, and band-pass modes
– Minimum, medium, and maximum window
– Gating
8. What is included with N991xA/
N995xA Option 308?
– With Option 308: 1-port cable trimming
– With Options 308 and 210: 1-port cable trimming, 2-port transmission
– With Options 308, 210, and 211: 1-port cable trimming, 2-port transmission, A/B and B/A
Note: A/B and B/A measurements require an external source
9. What is included with N991xA
Option 112?
– Option 112 (QuickCal), is not available for N995xA analyzers. It is available for N991xA analyzers.
– QuickCal is included with Option 112.
– 1-port QuickCal with a base analyzer.
– 1-port and enhanced response QuickCal with a T/R analyzer (one that has Option 210).
– 1-port, enhanced response, and 2-port QuickCal with a full 2-port analyzer (one that has Option 211).
– QuickCal is most accurate for DUTs with 7/16 and Type-N connectors and measurement uncertainties are
provided for frequencies ≤ 18 GHz. Reduced accuracy for DUTs with 3.5 mm (m), SMA (m), or other male
coaxial connectors; performance is unspecified. QuickCal is not recommended for DUTs with 3.5 mm (f), SMA
(f), or other similar female connectors. QuickCal is not applicable to waveguide.
