When used as a VNA extender for anechoic chamber measurement, the module allows an extremely low-cost measurement system to be used with zero compromise on measurement made. The above plot shows our Dual Converter with a Low-Cost VNA, compared to a High-Cost Keysight VNA. Both measurements are identical.


Internal Configuration
The module is somewhat complex inside and utilises multiple bands and around 40 RF MMIC chips. However the insides can be simplified to the following block diagram:
