Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8487A #9169661 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8487A is a state-of-the-art, multi-function, precision RF/microwave vector network analyzer (VNA). It has been precision engineered to provide measurements of relative amplitude and phase accuracy, dynamic performance and source match. It is well suited for providing complete characterization of a wide range of RF and microwave components including amplifiers, mixers, filters, and antennas, as well as cable and waveguide assemblies. This VNA provides frequency coverage from 500 kHz up to 26.5 GHz and excels at microwave applications. HP 8487A can operate in either reflection or transmission mode. It has built-in Two-Port, 4-Port and Six-Port configurations, making it an ideal choice for testing multiple-port devices such as filters, antennas, and other RF/microwave components. It has built-in capabilities for measuring VSWR, return loss, insertion loss, group delay, phase, and other similar parameters. The included VectorVu graphical user interface purposely designed to optimize usability, enabling one to navigate quickly and efficiently. AGILENT 8487A is characterized by two internal dynamic signal path amplifiers with continuously variable gain to simplify setting up through the user's system. It also features an optional external attenuator to make setting up easier with less external cabling required. Each input port features a sub-miniature N Female connector, and RF outputs can be delivered through either an internal or an external source. Each port also has two optional N male connectors for direct connection to circuits and components. KEYSIGHT 8487A provides excellent accuracy, dynamic range, and noise performance, offering precision measurements up to 26.5GHz. In terms of measurement accuracy, HEWLETT-PACKARD 8487A provides excellent stability and repeatability over temperature and time. The phase uncertainty is 1° linear phase accurate, while the insertion loss specification is 0.0015 dB. For added flexibility and performance, 8487A also features a built-in temperature chamber offering temperature sweeps from -20° to +105°C. AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8487A is a highly sophisticated and infinitely customizable VNA. Its tremendous frequency range and excellent dynamic performance makes it an ideal choice for electrical and RF engineers working in the microwave frequency range.
