HP 8571A Microwave EMI Receiver, 20 Hz to 22 GHz


[ Summary ][ Features ][ Specifications ][ Ordering ][ Assistance ]

Product Summary

The HP 8571A EMI receiver is capable of making your most demanding measurements over a wide (20 Hz to 22 GHz) frequency range. They are specifically designed to make essential military and commercial EMI measurements easily and quickly. The HP 8571A receiver includes an HP 8566B spectrum analyzer with Options 002 and 462, an HP 85685A RF preselector, an HP 11713A attenuator/switch driver, and an HP 8449B Option H02 preamplifier. This receiver is completely configured and verified by Hewlett-Packard and come with an individual calibration sheet to ensure ± 2 dB amplitude accuracy. They are shipped in a system cabinet. Owners of an HP 8566B can upgrade to an EMI compliance receiver by adding the spectrum analyzer options, accessory hardware, and factory calibration.
