Agilent/Keysight P9370A

The Keysight P9370A is a compact, USB-controlled 2-port vector network analyzer designed for RF and microwave component and system testing from 300 kHz to 4.5 GHz. This benchtop instrument delivers dynamic range exceeding 115 dB at 6.5 GHz with trace noise below 0.003 dBrms, enabling precise S-parameter measurements across aerospace, defense, and telecommunications applications. The P9370A employs proven measurement science and a familiar graphical interface consistent with other Keysight VNAs, reducing operator training time and ensuring measurement repeatability. Its compact chassis (48 × 178 × 337 mm, 2.04 kg) facilitates mobility between test locations while minimizing bench footprint.
