Used TEKTRONIX CMC 251 #9132470 for sale

TEKTRONIX CMC 251 is a high-performance vector network analyzer designed for the measurement of microwave continuity. It is used in research and development laboratories, production and quality control, component test, installation, system and service applications. CMC 251 series consists of two models, the CMC 251A and the CMC 251B. The CMC 251A is an imaging vector network analyzer designed to measure all forms of microwave components. It is a versatile instrument and the instrument is able to generate or analyze a wide range of frequencies, with frequency ranges from 2 GHz up to 60 GHz. Its exceptional control time and sweeping speed allows accurate continuous measurements of frequency, gain, return loss, insertion loss, phase, reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, noise figure and second harmonic distortion measurements. TEKTRONIX CMC 251 series can be fed with either a 50 or 75 ohm system. It is capable of providing exact and accurate measurements of through-port and S-parameters of a device-under-test (DUT). The CMC 251B is a pure vector network analyzer that provides measurements of linear S-parameters as well as image transmission and reflection coefficients. The instrument offers a wide range of measurement capabilities such as frequency sensitivity, stability, accuracy and resolution. It is suitable for applications like impedance measurement, noise figure and second harmonic distortion measurements. CMC 251 series features a digital signal processor (DSP) platform with up to 4GB internal memory, a 10.4" touchscreen, and a built-in Ethernet port. TEKTRONIX CMC 251 series is said to be well-suited to maximize the performance and reduce user instruction times. This ergonomic design eliminates the need for external control boxes and cables, reducing the overall setup footprint. CMC 251's extensive SCPI-based interface allows users to automate their tests and display the results in the most convenient manner. Additionally, the series is also equipped with a wide variety of accessories, such as calibrators, couplers, filters, probes, mixers, and noise generators, to provide even greater capability and flexibility. In summation, TEKTRONIX CMC 251 series is a powerful yet highly flexible measurement tool. The series boasts excellent measurement accuracy and stability, high speed sweeps, and a wealth of capabilities and features. This reliable vector network analyzer is a great choice for microwave engineers and other professionals who work with high-frequency components.
