Used MARCONI 2955B/2957B #153267 for sale

MARCONI 2955B and 2957B test equipment is a highly versatile, general purpose, RF and microwave test set designed to meet the most stringent test and measurement requirements. This equipment is designed to be easily operated and configured with a combination of features including vector signal analysis, vector network analysis, wideband/spectrum analysis, pulse signal/waveform capacity measurement and power measurement. The 2955B and 2957B have a high dynamic range with low inherent noise, allowing for measuring very low level RF signals with great accuracy. They also feature a range of wideband and narrowband frequency coverage from 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz, making them suitable for very broad applications. The input range of the 2955B and 2957B is from -115 dBm to +30 dBm, and the sweeping range of the 2957B is from 100 kHz to 26.5 GHz, allowing for measurements of large bandwidth signals. The frequency stability and accuracy of these test sets is guaranteed to be within ± 2.5 ppm with low phase and group or absolute delay jitter. The 2955B and 2957B feature multi-domain analysis capabilities allowing users to combine the different types of test mode measurements, such as vector network analysis, two-port isolated measurements and dynamic testing, into a single instrument configuration. The instruments are also capable of performing various types of power or frequency swaps which are useful in the analysis of complex modulation or waveforms. The 2957B also has a range of mathematical computation tools including Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT), decibel average noise (DAN) calculations and true peak power measurements. The instruments have a graphical user interface which allows for a wide range of graphical displays of measurements and also for easy configuration and setup. Some of the graphical displays include amplitude versus frequency plots, linear/logarithmic sweeps and I/Q vector diagrams. The 2955B and 2957B have an application programming interface (API) which allows the instrument to control other test equipment, computers and data loggers. This enables external control of the instrument, allowing for automated testing of the instrument's capabilities. The 2955B and 2957B feature enhanced safety features, such as over-voltage protection, to ensure safe operation and reduce the risk of damage. Both instruments also feature a wide operating temperature range of -30°C to + 55°C, allowing them to be operated in a variety of climates and locations. MARCONI 2955B and 2957B test equipment is an ideal choice for a wide range of test and measurement applications. They combine high accuracy, broad frequency range and a range of versatile features into one package. These test sets will provide reliable test and measurement results and offer great performance for both prototyping and production testing.
