The Rohde & Schwarz gear that I use is because it's so sensitive. I'm always looking for things way down into the noise floor as part of the electromagnetic compliance work that I do.

It is a more efficient, easier way to do measurements.

Repeatability is the main thing: Being able to go back to the lab and test get the same results. I know what to fix and how much to fix and when to stop.

For the RF application, we care much about the crosstalk on our device and PCBs. Generally, what we can do with the other vendor's product is four-port measurement. It's a bit complicated for us and time consuming to combine all the crosstalk measurement together in a  unified model. However, with this VNA, it is much easier because of its eight ports configuration. 

It's very stable because everything is done at the same time. This means within the test condition environment, everything is the same. This has increased accuracy and dramatically saved a lot of our time.

We can do more experiments with this product than using other VNAs which have less ports.

The noise floor for reference clocks is pretty low, so this instrument is able to measure it where others cannot.

I have been able to do quality measurements that I have been unable to achieve with the equipment from some other vendors. Since I spend quite some time in the lab, this product makes my life easier, results better, and speeds up my work.

I used it almost every day as a lab testing and measurement unit. It was a mandatory instrument for doing my job.

We can't measure our dynamic current with oscilloscopes. We can only use an Audio Analyzer, because of the low noise floor. Thus, it provides information that we couldn't get otherwise.

• It is easy to connect with.
• It's accurate.
• It's reliable.
• It hardly fails.
