DNA5000 2-Port Portable VNA

The DNA5000 Series Vector Network Analyzer platform empowers engineers to precisely capture S-parameters and assess the full transmission and reflection profile of RF components. By covering a vast spectrum from 5 kHz to 26.5 GHz, the series scales from basic passive component testing to advanced material dielectric analysis. The platform’s strength lies in its modularity—users can start with a base 4.5 GHz unit (DNA5042) and choose models up to 26.5 GHz (DNA5262) based on their specific bandwidth requirements.

Beyond the hardware, the DNA5000 ecosystem includes a comprehensive suite of professional accessories. This includes Mechanical Calibration Kits (Type-N and 3.5 mm) and high-precision Electronic Calibration (ECal) modules that automate the calibration process up to 26.5 GHz. To ensure measurement stability, the series is supported by a range of phase-stable RF cables and precision adapters (SMA, N-type, BNC, and 3.5 mm) designed to maintain signal integrity even at the highest frequencies.

The user experience is centered around a 10.1-inch capacitive touch display, providing intuitive control over complex measurements. With built-in support for Distance-to-Fault (DTF) and Time Domain Analysis, the DNA5000 is not just a benchtop instrument but a powerful diagnostic tool for cable/antenna systems and high-speed digital interconnects.

Up to 26.5 GHz Bandwidth

Scalable frequency options from 4.5 GHz to 26.5 GHz to match specific application needs.

127 dB Dynamic Range

High-sensitivity architecture for precise measurement of high-rejection filters and isolators.

ECal & Mechanical Kits

Comprehensive Calibration & Connectivity

Accuracy is guaranteed through a wide range of calibration options, including the MCAL series for mechanical precision and ECAL modules for fast, error-free electronic calibration. The system’s open architecture supports Web Control and SCPI commands via LAN, USB, or HDMI, making it easy to integrate into automated test environments or remote monitoring stations.

Advanced Diagnostics & Field Utility

Equipped with optional DNA-DTF10 (Distance-to-Fault) and DNA-TDA10 (Time Domain Analysis), the series excels at identifying physical cable breaks or impedance discontinuities. Its lightweight, compact form factor makes it an ideal companion for university labs, on-site RF debugging, and aerospace/defense applications where space is at a premium.
