NanoVNA V2 Plus4

4GHz second generation NanoVNA vector network analyzer, our own design.

https://nanorfe.com/nanovna-v2.html

The V2 Plus4 is the latest hardware version with improved shielding, 4" display, 90dB dynamic range, and 4x the sweep speed of other NanoVNAs (6x for V2 Plus4 Pro).

This is the official direct store of the NanoVNA V2 and all products we sell are guaranteed original.
