Agilent Technologies 87050A Option H15
Introduction
Introduction
The Agilent 87050A Option H15 multiport test set is designed for use
with Agilent Technologies 50
Ω network analyzers such as the
Agilent 871x series, Agilent 8753D, and Agilent 8753E.
The test set provides the ability to make single connection, multiple
measurements of multiport devices with up to 16 ports, such as
distribution amplifiers, taps, switches, and couplers. Measurement
throughput is increased by reducing the number of device reconnects
the operator must perform. Switching is performed by mechanical
switches.
The test set can be controlled by using an external GPIB (HP-IB)
controller, or through parallel control.
NOTE This user’s and service guide discusses the use of the test set with an
Agilent 8753D or Agilent 8753E only.
For complete theory of operation information on the
Agilent 87050A Option H15, refer to “Theory of Operation” on
page 6-23 in this manual.
