The HP/Agilent 8711A is a 1.3 GHz RF network analyzer engineered for precise S-parameter and RF component characterization from 300 kHz to 1.3 GHz. Its integrated synthesized source and transmission/reflection test set enable complete swept-frequency measurements with a single connection. The instrument delivers dynamic range exceeding 90 dB in narrowband detection mode, supporting both narrowband and broadband detection for high-rejection device analysis.
