This is a complete list of the technical specifications for the N5227A PNA network analyzer with
the following options. See block diagrams for all models and options beginning on page 47.
2-Port Models
Option 200 - 2-port base model with standard test set.
Option 201 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers and R1 receiver switch.
Option 219 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers, R1 receiver switch, source and receiver
attenuators (extended power range), and bias-tees.
4-Port Models
Option 400 - 4-port base model with standard test set.
Option 401 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers and R1 receiver switch.
Option 419 - To base model, adds front-panel jumpers, R1 receiver switch, source and receiver
attenuators (extended power range), and bias-tees.
Notes
This document provides technical specifications for the 85058B and N4694A calibration kits.

to generate the
curves for your calibration kit and PNA setup.
Typical performance information between 67 GHz and 70 GHz is shown in this document where available. The
performance is degraded at particular frequencies in this range due to the modes of the 1.85 mm connectors used
in the analyzer, test port cables and adapters.
For all tables in this data sheet, the specified performance at the exact frequency of a break is the degraded value
of the two specifications at that frequency.
Definitions
All specifications and characteristics apply over a 25 °C ±5 °C range (unless otherwise stated) and 90
minutes after the instrument has been turned on.
Specification (spec.): Warranted performance. Specifications include guardbands to account for the
expected statistical performance distribution, measurement uncertainties, and changes in performance
due to environmental conditions.
Characteristic (char.): A performance parameter that the product is expected to meet before it leaves
the factory, but that is not verified in the field and is not covered by the product warranty. A
characteristic includes the same guardbands as a specification.
Typical (typ.): Expected performance of an average unit which does not include guardbands. It is not
covered by the product warranty.
Nominal (nom.): A general, descriptive term that does not imply a level of performance. It is not
covered by the product warranty.
Calibration: The process of measuring known standards to characterize a network analyzer's
systematic (repeatable) errors.
Corrected (residual): Indicates performance after error correction (calibration). It is determined by
the quality of calibration standards and how well "known" they are, plus system repeatability, stability,
and noise.
Uncorrected (raw): Indicates instrument performance without error correction. The uncorrected
performance affects the stability of a calibration.
Standard: When referring to the analyzer, this includes no options unless noted otherwise.
