Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648A #9134116 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648A is a signal source that combines a low-noise vector signal generator and ancillary components into a single tower-style unit. The signal generator module offers an adjustable frequency range from 10 kHz to 6.2 GHz in a single card, making it one of the most versatile signal generators of its kind. Along with its excellent frequency range, HP 8648A includes features such as frequency synthesis, modulated waveform generation, and AM/FM simulcasts. AGILENT 8648A also includes a wide selection of broadcast TV and satellite service options, as well as pulse modulation and sweep functions. HEWLETT-PACKARD 8648A is equipped with a low-noise output path. Its measured noise-internal-frequency-bandwidth is typically lower than that of other signal generators. This allows KEYSIGHT 8648A to generate signals accurately enough for narrowband applications, such as testing cellular telephones and 802.11b wireless networks. Likewise, 8648A has a high distortion-free range for applications that require a clean signal such as frequency-modulated (FM) broadcasts. AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648A has resolutions of 0.05 Hz and 0.01 dB and offers various sweep modes with resolution up to 0.001 Hz. It also features external modulation-sources and variable modulation capabilities. Other features include wide modulation frequencies, phase, and phase frequency switching to support the development of various systems. HP 8648A offers several ways to control its signal source. Control can be done through the on-board screen, via a computer using HP instrument-control software, or by using AGILENT large range of other instruments. This makes AGILENT 8648A a great choice for integration in a wide range of applications such as high-data-rate broadcasting, digital television, fiber-optic communication, and wireless networks. HEWLETT-PACKARD 8648A is powered by a single standard 12V power supply and includes a VXIbus interface for external control. KEYSIGHT 8648A is also SCPI compatible, allowing it to be managed using a wide range of software packages for systems such as LabVIEW, KEYSIGHT SystemVue, and HPVEE. 8648A has a wide variety of options and accessories. These include a rack-mounting kit and a storage box for the generator and accessories. AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648A also comes with interconnect cables, and a 30 dB power attenuator. HP 8648A can also be upgraded with additional options such as a Step Attenuator, a 2GHz millivoltmeter, and an additional separate 6.2GHz signal generator. AGILENT 8648A is a versatile signal source and is a popular choice amongst engineers for its excellent frequency range, low noise with high fidelity signals, and a range of output modulation types.
