Network Analyzers
Extensive portfolio supporting up to millimeter waves
Two Categories of Solutions
Benchtop
- VectorStar™ Series
This series includes multifunctional and premium-type vector network analyzers that cover 70 kHz to 220 GHz (up to 1.1 THz with an extender). Anritsu also provides an Opto-Electronic Network Analyzer suited for measuring O/E, E/O, and O/O devices. - ShockLine™ Series (Economy Type)
This series comprises economy-type vector network analyzers covering 50 kHz to 43.5 GHz or 55 GHz to 92 GHz. The 2-port VNA solution supports stable measurements over long distances thanks to the free placement of measurement ports.
Handheld
- Cable and Antenna Analyzers (Site Master)
The latest models can be optionally equipped with vector network analyzer and spectrum analyzer functions. Supporting frequencies up to 6 GHz, these instruments are ideal for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of communications systems in the field.

White Paper:
Evaluating Signal Quality to Ensure THz Communication System Performance
In THz communication systems, performance evaluation is essential for transceivers that support wideband signals and higher-order modulation schemes. However, when the expected communication performance cannot be achieved, identifying the root cause is often challenging.
This white paper explains the insights that can be obtained from EVM, phase noise, frequency response, and S-parameter measurements, and reviews the key evaluations required to identify the contributing factors.

Factory Separation and Evaluation Design for Terahertz Sensing: Measurement Requirements and Condition Design
In R&D in this field, separating variability caused by the object itself from that introduced by measurement conditions and environmental factors remains a key challenge.
This white paper explains methods to isolate these factors and ensure reproducible evaluation in terahertz-band measurements, where environmental conditions, measurement systems, and signal characteristics strongly influence results.
