• Calibrations: CalReady, OSL, and response calibration
• Note: 2-port insertion loss is NOT included with the base model, if 2-port insertion loss is needed, order Option 210
• Note: Base analyzer does not have phase information, for S11 or S21 phase, order Option 210

Combination analyzers / information on options

This FieldFox model is a combination analyzer, a device with multiple testing capabilities.

• Combination analyzer (combo) = Cable and antenna tester (CAT) + Vector network analyzer (VNA) + Signal analyzer (SA)

Vector network analysis and spectrum analysis are available with software options.

There are over 30 optional features available, enabling users to customize this instrument to their specific application. For detailed information regarding options, please view this document beginning on page 5. Options can also be found in the accessories section of this page. Please note – several options also require other options as pre-requisites. To simplify the selection and ordering process, this will be noted on each option’s product page where applicable.

Option part numbers are model specific. For example, option 233 (spectrum analysis) for an N9913C and N9914C would not be the same.

Fifty to sixty percent of microwave-link equipment issues are related to cables, antennas, and connectors. Degraded feeder lines cause poor coverage, link failures, and reduced sensitivity in the receive path. To maintain microwave link quality, it is critical to keep cable and antenna systems in good working condition. FieldFox is uniquely qualified to provide all the necessary measurements to troubleshoot and maintain these systems.

Keysight offers three series of Field Fox analyzers – series A, B and C. While these share many similarities, there are also a number of differences. Please click here to view an overview of main differences within the three groups.
