  • Upgrades are ordered using the PNA model number followed by a "U" as shown in the product number column below.
  • When customers direct any hardware upgrade kits to be sent to a service center for installation, they should contact Keysight for an RMA and shipping instructions, and then wait for confirmation that the upgrade kit is shipping from the factory before sending in the PNA.
  • Upgrades listed as installed by customers consist of only a license. No adjustments or calibration are required.
  • The parts in our hardware upgrades come with a 90-day warranty against any manufacturing defect. The warranty period of the instrument into which they are installed is not affected.
