Rental Exclusive: M5090 2-Port 8.5 GHz Vector Network Analyzer

The M5090 is a 2-port, 8.5 GHz Vector Network Analyzer that includes many of the advanced software features found in other CMT VNAs:

 

  • Linear/logarithmic sweeps with multiple trace formats
  • Power sweeps
  • Fixture simulation (embedding/de-embedding)
  • 16 independent channels with up to 16 traces each
  • Markers with marker search tools and marker math, various conversion algorithms, and limit tests for pass/fail criteria, etc.
  • Test Automation programming in LabView, Python, MATLAB, .NET, etc.

 

To keep costs down, some features typically included in CMT software have been excluded from this model. For users who do not require features like time domain and gating, this unit offers a reduced cost without sacrificing performance or accuracy.

 

The add-on option for ISO17025/Z540-1 Accredited, Traceable Calibration Certificate and Uncertainties is available and needs to be specified at time of order.

 

M5090 VNA includes an RF measurement module and S2 Windows or Linux operating system on a PC, laptop, tablet, or x86 board computer connecting to the measurement hardware via USB interface. S2 software can be installed on multiple computers, making it easy to share the use of the analyzer measurement module.

This product is available for rental only. Copper Mountain Technologies announced an End-of-Sale (EOS) for the M5090 2-Port VNA. This product is no longer available for purchase, and is now exclusively available to rent, as of April 9, 2025. We will provide service and repair for owners of this instrument for a minimum of 3 years from the EOS date or based on parts availability. The replacement for this model is the V0902 2-Port 9 GHz VNA

Frequency range 300 kHz to 8.5 GHz
Measured parameters S11, S21, S12, S22
Dynamic range 130 dB typ. (10 Hz IF BW)
Measurement speed 70 µs
Output power adjustment range -55 dBm to +5 dBm
Measurement points per sweep up to 200,001

Applications of the M5090 include RF component design and testing, on-wafer probing, field testing, insertion loss measurement, antenna matching, quality control, material measurements, and many others.
