The Agilent HP 8713B is an economy network analyzer (ENA) that offers speed, accuracy, and measurement versatility at a price that makes them ideal for high-volume RF component manufacturing. Characterize the transmission/reflection frequency response or measure the insertion loss, delay, power, or SWR of a variety of RF components. The RF ENA instruments are compact, integrated, and provide fast, simple, and accurate RF testing.

An integrated synthesized source and transmission/reflection test set enable complete swept frequency characterization of RF components with a single connection. The internal synthesized source is a fast (50 ms/sweep) and stable (1 Hz resolution) stimulus for testing narrowband devices. The sensitive receivers of these RF ENAs have both narrowband and broadband detection which makes the instrument ideal for testing the linear and nonlinear components of RF systems. Broadband detection allows characterization of frequency translation devices, while narrowband detection provides more than 100 dB of dynamic range for testing high-rejection, narrowband devices. Calibrated external scalar detectors are used to measure remote DUTs and amplitude modulation delay. Power sweep enables testing of amplifier gain compression.
