Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648C #9145534 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648C is a microwave network analyzer designed for operation in the frequency range from 100 kHz to 4 GHz. This instrument features a power source that can generate RF power as high as +20 dBm, two built-in measurement receivers, and an additional external receiver for external measurements. It also has a time domain reflectometry (TDR) port for probing into transmission lines and hybrid couplers. HP 8648C microwave network analyzer consists of an RF source, a built-in source power meter, two measurement receivers, and a display/measurement control unit. The RF source provides up to 20 dBm output level while the two measurement receivers have a nominal dynamic range of 80 dB and 75 dB dependant on configuration. The two receivers are both dual receivers, meaning that they can concurrently connect to two different types of test ports, such as coax connectors, waveguide flanges, or test fixtures. AGILENT 8648C features a built-in measurement suite that covers basic measurements such as simulating a network, measuring the return loss, gain, group delay, and chamber characterization. It is also able to perform harmonic and IMD measurements, linear & two-tone intermodulation distortion measurements, and measurement of coupling factor, gain compression, and SWR. HEWLETT-PACKARD 8648C is well suited for use in anechoic chambers and near-field measurement systems and is equipped with a built-in Near-Field (NF) measurement option that allows for software-aided measurements. This NF option includes a probe compensation feature which allows for calibrating the probe/environment relationship. 8648C is designed for a selectable manual or automated use, with support for one-button or scripted testing with compatible Test Manager software. Additionally, this instrument is also capable of saving test configurations with multi-level limit tests, allowing for improved efficiency in designing and testing complex systems. In addition to its RF capabilities, KEYSIGHT 8648C can also provide non-RF port functions, such as power supply voltage, temperature and pressure readings, reducing the need for additional instruments for non-RF related measurements. Overall, AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 8648C is an ideal solution for engineers engaged in designing and testing complex systems, as it provides a reliable and accurate way to inspect and analyze RF networks and complex systems.
