HP / Agilent 41952A 50 Ohm TRANSMISSION/REFLECTION TEST SET

The HP/Agilent 41952A is a 50 Ohm transmission/reflection test set that expands the measurement capability of the 4195A Network/Spectrum Analyzer. This accessory enables S-parameter characterization of RF devices and networks across a wide frequency range without requiring DUT reorientation. Internal power splitters and directional couplers facilitate simultaneous transmission and reflection measurements, making it ideal for filter, amplifier, and cable assessment.
