Agilent/Keysight N2852A

The Keysight N2852A is an interface adapter that bridges AutoProbe II and AutoProbe III probing systems, enabling compatibility between Keysight Infiniium UXR-Series oscilloscopes and a broad range of legacy probes and accessories. The adapter connects probes equipped with the AutoProbe II 3.5 mm connector interface to oscilloscopes featuring the AutoProbe III interface (1.0 mm and 1.85 mm connectors), significantly expanding measurement capability without requiring probe replacement.

– Technical Specifications

• Bandwidth support: AutoProbe II interface probes and accessories up to 34 GHz
• Input connector: 3.5 mm (AutoProbe II)
• Output connectors: 1.0 mm or 1.85 mm (AutoProbe III)
• Connection method: Bolt-on interface for secure integration

– Key Features

• Direct compatibility with InfiniiMax III N2800A-03A, InfiniiMax III+ N7000A-03A, InfiniiMax RC MX0023A, and N7004A O/E converter probes
• Cascaded operation with AutoProbe II adapters including N5442A precision 50-ohm adapter and N5449A high Z adapter
• Suitable for non-mains-powered circuits only (not rated for CAT II, CAT III, or CAT IV measurements)
• RF cable requires careful handling to prevent bending or kinking that could degrade measurement accuracy

– Compatibility & Integration

The N2852A is designed specifically for Keysight Infiniium UXR-Series oscilloscopes with AutoProbe III interfaces. It enables use of the complete InfiniiMax probe portfolio and other AutoProbe II accessories on UXR platforms. Cascaded adapter configurations support extended system flexibility for precision 50-ohm and high-impedance measurements.
