Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs) are an important tool for the development and evaluation of RF conditioning and antenna products. Wesley Sarratt, President and CEO of Integrity Microwaves required a compact VNA for measurements up to 6.5 GHz at a price that fit his team’s budget. But most importantly he needed an instrument capable of making quality measurements. “If you don’t receive dependable performance from the VNA, it doesn’t matter if it can fit in the palm of your hand, or even if it’s free,” said Wesley. CMT’s M5065 Compact VNA offered the performance and feature set that Integrity Microwaves needed at an affordable cost.  “The device is user friendly, the interface is smooth, the fidelity of the measurements is high, and the price is very competitive.”

Integrity Microwave utilizes their VNAs for testing and evaluation during product development, as well as acceptance testing on production solutions. CMT’s VNAs can reliably evaluate the performance of RF conditioning and antenna products and the portability of the USB VNA form factor allows users to transcend the capabilities of a traditional VNA. Wesley’s team takes advantage of the M5065’s portability by visiting customers with his instrument. “One of the biggest impacts is the ability to take the instrument directly to our customers and demonstrate our product in front of them,” said Sarratt, who uses his USB VNA to easily display test results on the big screen in his customer’s conference rooms. “They’ve never seen that before. It gives you immediate credibility when you can prove in a live test that your product can do what you say it does.”
