HP 71209A Option Z40 Microwave Spectrum Analyzer, 100 Hz to 40 GHz

[ Summary ][ Features ][ Specifications ][ Key Literature ][ Ordering ][ Assistance ][ Related ]
The HP 71209A option Z40 microwave spectrum analyzer provides full sweep from 100 Hz to 40 GHz through a single coaxial input connector. Preselection from 2.9 GHz through 40 GHz eliminates the need to perform time-consuming signal-identification. Its superb frequency accuracy, amplitude accuracy, and repeatability let you perform even the most demanding satellite tests.

As part of the Modular Measurement System (MMS) family, you can choose a configuration that best meets your requirements in performance, size, and price. Adding accessories such as a preamplifier or tracking generator is very easy. (These accessories are nat available to 40 GHz at this time.)

For automated testing, the HP 70000 series of spectrum analyzers are compatible with the HP8566B. Their proven reliability and repeatability allow a three-year calibration cycle, giving you a very low lifetime cost.
