HP 8510E Microwave Network Analyzer, 45 MHz to 20 GHz

[ Summary ][ Features ][ Specifications ][ Key Literature ][ Ordering ][ Assistance ][ Related ]
The HP 8510E microwave vector network analyzer is a complete, unracked system configured with an HP 8510C vector network analyzer, a 20 GHz S-parameter test set, a 20 GHz synthesized sweeper, and a complete set of 3.5 mm measurement accessories. Installation is not included.

This preconfigured system is a complete solution for characterizing the linear behavior of either active or passive networks over the 45 MHz to 20 GHz frequency range. The HP 8510C displays measurement results in log/linear magnitude, phase, or group delay format on a large, color CRT with two independent, yet identical channels. The impact of systematic errors is removed by virtually "real-time" error correction, allowing you to adjust your test device while it's being measured. Effective directivity and source match can be improved to as much as 60 dB with a TRL calibration kit that must be purchased separately.
