The Keysight (Agilent) P5003A is a compact, two-port Vector Network Analyzer operating from 9 kHz to 14 GHz and controlled via USB 3.0 connection to an external computer. This portable instrument delivers high-end measurement performance for passive components, amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters, employing the same measurement science as Keysight’s PNA and ENA series VNAs. A common software platform and remote-programming interface ensure consistency across the product line.
– Technical Specifications
• Frequency range: 9 kHz to 14 GHz
• Port configuration: 2-port
• Control interface: USB 3.0

• Measurement applications include basic pulsed-RF, automatic fixture removal, time domain analysis, noise figure measurements with vector correction, embedded LO capability, gain compression, spectrum analysis, and multiport calibrated measurements (via optional software modules)
• Compact, faceless chassis optimized for USB connectivity and portability
– Typical Applications
• Component characterization (passive and active)
• Amplifier and mixer testing
• Frequency converter evaluation
• Broadband RF characterization from 9 kHz to 14 GHz
– Compatibility & Integration
The P5003A operates under external computer control and shares the measurement platform with Keysight PNA, ENA, and other USB VNA models. This common architecture simplifies integration into multi-instrument test setups and enables consistent programming across instruments. Port extension through cascading allows flexible scaling for multiport applications without replacing the core instrument.
Included accessories: quick-start guide, USB 3.0 cable assembly, external AC-DC power supply adapter, power cord, and calibration certificate.
