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 s tandards and ho w well "known" they are, plus system repeatabili t y,
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.
4
Corrected System Performance
The specifications in this section apply for measurements made with the N5242A analyzer with
the following conditions:
• 10 Hz IF bandwidth
• No averaging applied to data
• Isolation calibration with an averaging factor of 8

The direct receiver access input extended dynamic range is calculated as the difference
between the direct receiver access input noise floor and the source maximum output power. The
effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainties and interfering signals into
account. This set-up should only be used when the receiver input will never exceed its maximum
receiver input. When the analyzer is in segment sweep mode, it can have predefined frequency
segments which will output a higher power level when the extended dynamic range is required
(i.e. devices with high insertion loss), and reduced power when the maximum receiver input level
will occur (i.e. devices with low insertion loss). The extended range is only available in one-path
transmission measurements.
