Anritsu Option 21, Scalar Transmission
The MS46121B-021 is an official option for the Anritsu MS46121B series Vector Network Analyzer. Option 21 enables scalar transmission measurements, allowing users to perform scalar (magnitude-only) S21 and S12 measurements. This option is designed to enhance the measurement capabilities of the MS46121B, providing users with the ability to analyze transmission characteristics without requiring full vector (phase and magnitude) data. The scalar transmission option is particularly useful for applications where only insertion loss or gain needs to be measured, simplifying the test process and reducing complexity. This option is activated via a license key and is compatible exclusively with the MS46121B series hardware.
