Keysight 89601D VSA 2026: Vector Signal Analysis Software

89601D VSA 2026 is the latest version of Keysight's industry-leading vector signal analysis (VSA) software, available as a standalone PC application, for use with Keysight oscilloscopes, or integrated with X-Series signal analyzers. It provides a comprehensive suite of measurement capabilities for evaluating both digitally modulated and analog signals.

Key New Features & Enhancements in 2026

Hardware & Connectivity

  • DDR4 Memory Support: Added to the M9393A PXIe performance vector signal analyzer, enabling faster processing times.

Instrument Support

  • N9048B PXE: Performance EMI receiver with precompliance and full compliance measurement capabilities.

  • Infiniium Oscilloscopes: New MXR/EXR A-Series oscilloscopes with up to 2.5 GHz bandwidth.

Added Functionality & VSA License Types

  • Application of Gaussian Filter: Added to various measurement types when using oscilloscopes (e.g., basic IQ measurements).

  • Trigger Input: Added to the M9393A PXIe vector signal analyzer.

  • New License Type: Web-based licensing - Newly introduced Network License Server to manage software licenses in a networked environment.
