Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 86142B #9152186 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 86142B optical performance test set is an extremely versatile, highly capable instrument designed for characterization of optical component and system performance. This equipment is capable of generating ultra-low noise microwave patterns at S, C, L, X, Ku, Ka & V-bands to carry out measurements including return loss, insertion loss, group delay & phase, extinction ratio, and relative power. Its small size, low power consumption, high port density and fast auto-testing make HP 86142B ideal for a wide variety of test applications. AGILENT 86142B provides two main channels, the source channel, and the configurable measurement channel. The source channel consists of two lasers, both of which have variable frequency range, with 30 Ghz of frequency selection and 10 Ghz of sampling rate. The source channel is also equipped with a microwave generator, programmable attenuator and power meter. This channel is capable of producing broadband signals with widths of up to 1 GHz. The instrument's configurable measurement channel includes a power meter, phase & extinction meter, and a high performance frequency counter. This allows the user to measure fine detail optical parameters such as dispersion, polarization dependent loss/group delay, and FOMs, with resolution up to 10 piconewton. HEWLETT-PACKARD 86142B also includes a Stepped Frequency Continuous Wave (SFCW) mode, and a Wavelength Modulation Analysis (WMA) mode, which enable users to measure ADSL2 frequency response, dispersion and signal integrity criteria. An optional bidirectional measurement mode is also available, which allows for simultaneous test of both transmit and receive channels. The equipment is equipped with a large 8.4 inch color touchscreen for easy control. The color LCD also has a built in signal display which can provide a visual of signal patterns, such as signal waveform, power spectrum and the results of measurements. The touchscreen allows the user to program the equipment, select parameters and generate instruction sheets. 86142B has an advanced touch-and-test function which simplifies test setup and measurement. This mode allows the user to quickly access key functions, link multiple instruments, and monitor test performance on the main screen. This feature allows the user to quickly and easily set up complex tests. KEYSIGHT 86142B also features a variety of PC software tools, including BenchLink, OptSim, and Insight. These software tools allow the user to create automated test scripts, simulate optical test setups, and arrange and organize the data obtained from measurements. Overall, AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 86142B optical performance test set is a powerful and versatile instrument ideal for a wide variety of optical test and measurement applications. The instrument's optimized configuration, color LCD touch screen, advanced SFCW/WMA modes, and touch-and-test function make it perfect for faster and easier test set ups and measurements. The wide range of PC software tools make it suitable for post-processing of data and automated test scripts.
