The Keysight N1500A materials measurement suite streamlines the process of measuring complex
permittivity and permeability with a vector network analyzer. Various type of measurements, such as
transmission line and free space, arch reflectivity, resonant cavity, and coaxial probe are available as
options. The easy-to-use software guides the user through setup and measurement, instantly converting
S-parameter network analyzer data into the data format of your choice and displaying the results within
seconds. Results can be charted in a variety of formats: ε

N1930B Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) Software
P937xA Series P500xA Series
The PLTS software platform has become an industry standard for calibration, measurement, and analysis
of linear passive interconnects such as cables, connectors, backplanes, and printed circuit boards.
Utilizing either a vector network analyzer (VNA) or a time domain reflectometer (TDR), fast and accurate
measurements can be obtained without in-depth knowledge of microwave measurement techniques.
