Agilent / HP / Keysight 8720D

The Agilent/HP 8720D Network Analyzer brings together a combination of speed, performance and ease of use features to solve your measurement needs.

The Agilent/HP 8720D provides display in Cartesian, Smith chart and Polar formats. The number of markers available with the 8720D are 5 per channel; 1 "active" per channel and it can be coupled or uncoupled.

A wide range of calibrations are available for the Agilent 8720D. Full two port calibration removes all the systematic errors, resulting in the most accurate measurements.

In the 8720D, 31 instrument states can be stored internally or recalled via the SAVE/RECALL menu. Instrument states include all control settings, active limit lines, active list frequency tables, memory trace data, active calibration coefficients, and custom display titles. Storage is in nonvolatile memory.

The 8720D allows saving data, instrument states (including calibration data), user graphics, data plots (HP-GL commands),and test sequences on disk, using a built-in disk drive or any external disk drive with command subset CS/80.

Data files can be stored in MS-DOS format or Hewlett-Packard's standard LIF format in binary or ASCII formats (compatible with the Agilent 85150A microwave design system).

GPIB interface operates to IEEE 488-1978 and IEC 625 standards and IEEE 728-1982 recommended practices. This connector allows communication with compatible devices including external controllers, printers, plotters, disk drives, and power meters.

The Agilent 85071B software uses broadband S-parameter measurements to determine the electromagnetic properties of dielectric and magnetic materials. The software calculates both the complex permittivity and permeability including loss factors. The software offers the choice of four algorithms, each designed to address specific measurement needs.

The Agilent 85070B dielectric probe kit allows convenient nondestructive testing of materials using the open-ended coaxial probe method. The probe, together with its own dedicated software, determines the complex permittivity of a wide variety of liquids, semi-solids, and solids.

The Agilent 85130 series test port adapter sets protect the 8720D test set port when connecting devices to the test port.

The Agilent 8720D comes with a 3.5 inch disk drive and serial/parallel ports, you'll benefit from improved data handling, in addition to higher accuracy, faster sweep speed, and built-in test sequencing automation.
