Banded millimeter-wave measurements
With firmware version A.04.00 or later, the PNA microwave E836xC network analyzers
are capable of supporting banded millimeter-wave modules, extending the frequency
range of your network analyzer up to 500 GHz. Additionally, you can customize the
most cost-effective solution specific for your application by purchasing just the module
and frequency range you need. Figure 10 shows a typical millimeter-wave configuration.
