Agilent HP 8517B S-Parameter Test Set, 0.045 to 50 GHz, 2.4 mm
Several S-Parameter tests sets are available for the Agilent 8510C
network analyzer for broadband coaxial measurements from 45 MHz
to 50 GHz. The Agilent 8517B test set has an architecture that develops
a separate reference channel for each incident port. RF switching
is done with a built-in electronic switch. For active device measurements,
the test sets include the ability to apply dc bias (external) to
the test port center conductors. Also available are two 60 dB step
attenuators, which allow control of the port 1 and port 2 signal
levels. Option 007 high dynamic range configuration.
