Product Description

The 8561E portable RF spectrum analyzer offers the measurement capability and performance previously found in larger more expensive benchtop analyzers. It operates from 30 Hz to 6.5 GHz. This analyzer combines outstanding phase noise sensitivity 1 Hz resolution bandwidths synthesized tuning and wide dynamic range in a MIL-rugged package built to withstand harsh environmental conditions. It offers a complete solution for adjacent-channel power (ACP) testing of burst carrier signals using digital modulation and the ability to measure occupied bandwidth percentage. Time-gated signal analysis allows you to easily measure time-varying signals such as pulsed RF time-division multiple access interleaved and burst-modulated. For millimeter applications that don’t require full microwave coverage the 8561E with the Agilent 11970 series harmonic mixers or Agilent 11974 series preselected mixers is a lower-cost solution.
