Agilent / HP / Keysight 8720C

The Agilent/HP 8720C vector network analyzer characterize RF and microwave components down to 50 MHz and up to 20 GHz.

The compact 8720C includes a fast-sweeping source, S-parameter test set, tuned receiver, and large color display in a single package.

The 8720C is an ideal choice for cost and space conscious applications in research and development, manufacturing, incoming inspection or quality assurance.

The Agilent 8720C offers remarkable performance which is fully synthesized, while sweeping and provides stability and accuracy with in 10 ppm. A built-in switching test set measures all four S-parameters with a single connection.

Built-in vector accuracy enhancement provides excellent error-corrected accuracy in all common coaxial connectors. A user kit supports user-defined standards, and allows calibration in waveguide.

Option 010 with the 8720C(time domain capability) computes and displays the response versus time or distance of the device under test (DUT). Gating feature can be applied to remove the effects of unwanted reflections to view the DUT's true response versus frequency.

Test configurations can be defined, saved and recalled with save/recall capability. Use five internal nonvolatile memory registers or save/recall dierectly to an external CS80 disk drive.

Option 006 available on the Agilent 8720C replaces the standard mechanical test port switch with a solid state switch. Option 011 deletes the couplers and transfer switch, providing direct access to the source output and three inputs.

Option H85 adds controllable attenuators to the 8720C and allows addition of a booster amplifier and isolators so you can deliver up to 20 watts to the DUT and measure up to 20 watts output.

Option H87 combines the high-power capability of option H85 and frequency translator measurements. Option H88 combines the high-power handling capability of option H85 and direct sampler access of option C02 for maximum sensitivity and flexibility in high power test applications.
