The MS46522B Series redefines cost-effective performance for 2-port vector network analysis, combining modular mmWave support, built-in time domain tools, and a small form factor—all with enterprise-class measurement precision. Supporting frequency ranges up to 92 GHz, it is especially well-suited for testing passive 5G components, E-band devices, automotive RF cables, and high-speed interconnects.

The E-band Options 82 (1-meter tether) and 83 (5-meter tether) allow flexible over-the-air (OTA) or benchtop testing environments, while the optional time-domain features bring real-time TDR-like functionality for signal integrity diagnostics.

Anritsu also offers a bias tee (Option 61) for the 8.5 GHz model, enabling direct power supply to active devices under test. Designed for high-speed environments, the MS46522B delivers reliable throughput and scalability, with a complete internal system (including computer and power) built into a compact 3U chassis.

Its shared GUI, command syntax, and driver compatibility across the ShockLine platform streamlines integration into automated test systems and multi-site deployments.

  • Broad Frequency Options – Models available from RF to 92 GHz with scalable configurations.

  • Millimeter-Wave Options (82/83) – Tethered modules support E-band measurements for benchtop and OTA testing.

  • Time-Domain Analysis Options –

    • Option 2: Real-time lowpass/bandpass TDR-like time domain.

    • Option 22: File-based SI tools for circuit modeling and validation.

  • DC Biasing (Option 61) – Available on 8.5 GHz model to power DUTs during testing.

  • Integrated Design – Built-in PC and power supply within a compact 3U chassis.

  • Fast Sweep Speeds & High Dynamic Range – Ideal for fast-paced production lines.

  • GUI and Programming Compatibility – Shares interface, drivers, and command set with the ShockLine family.

  • Cost-Efficient mmWave Testing – Most affordable 55–92 GHz E-band solution for mass production environments.
