SC0402 2-Port 4.5 GHz Vector Network Analyzer
The SC0402 is a 2-Port 4.5 GHz VNA (Vector Network Analyzer) designed for daily engineering and production workflows, offering excellent dynamic range, fast measurement speed, and high output power in a compact package, with the maximum standard software feature set enabled.
VNAs and ACMs are delivered with factory calibration certificates. 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.
The Copper Mountain Technologies SC0402 VNA includes an RF measurement module and S2 VNA software for Windows PC, laptop, tablet, or x86 board computer connecting to the measurement hardware via USB interface. Linux OS support is also available for this product upon request and based on user requirements. S2 software can be installed license free on multiple computers, making it easy and secure for shared use of the vector network analyzer.
