Rohde & Schwarz ZVL6 Vector Network Analyzer

The Rohde & Schwarz ZVL6 is a vector network analyzer covering 9 kHz to 6 GHz, engineered for RF and microwave component characterization across research, production, service, and field deployment. This compact, sub-7 kg instrument delivers bidirectional 2-port S-parameter measurement, impedance, admittance, and stability analysis with dynamic range exceeding 115 dB across most bands and typical performance reaching 123 dB. Measurement speeds achieve 75 dB (9 kHz–50 MHz), >110 dB (50–100 MHz), >115 dB (100 MHz–6 GHz); typical 123 dB maximum Maximum output power: 0 dBm Impedance: 50 Ω Connectors: N-Type female Reference frequency stability (OCXO): 1×10⁻⁷ from 0 °C to 50 °C Reference frequency aging (OCXO): 1×10⁻⁷ per year Weight: <7 kg Instrument depth: 37 cm Operating system: Windows XP Power: 12 V DC operation available; optional battery pack Key Features Bidirectional 2-port vector network analyzer for all 4 S-parameters Smith chart and inverted Smith chart display formats Optional spectrum analyzer (ZVL-K1) and power meter integration (R&S NRP sensor compatible) External 10 MHz reference input; optional 10 MHz OCXO reference output Measurement data export/import in ASCII and Touchstone formats Typical Applications Component and system analysis in R&D, manufacturing, field service, and installation environments.
