Product Description:

Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B 9kHz to 1.5GHz, Portable Spectrum Analyzer

The Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B spectrum analyzer is a wide band, very sensitive receiver. It works on the principle of "super-heterodyne receiver" to convert higher frequencies (normally ranging up to several 10s of GHz) to measurable quantities. The received frequency spectrum is slowly swept through a range of pre-selected frequencies, converting the selected frequency to a measurable DC level (usually logarithmic scale), and displaying the same on the CRT of the Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B. The CRT displays received signal strength (y-axis) against frequency ( x-axis).

Some applications for Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B Spectrum Analyzers include Site Monitoring: Verify that the frequency and signal strength of your transmitter is accurate. Interference: Before a system is installed you use a Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B spectrum analyzer to verify that the frequencies (you plan to use) are not occupied or if the presence of a very strong signal will interfere with your new setup. Interference can be created by a number of different situations. Other tests that utilize the Agilent Technologies, Inc. E4401B spectrum analyzer features include antenna isolation, co-channel interference, adjacent channel power, occupied bandwidth, intermodulation, microwave or satellite antenna alignment, and characterization of components.

Feature:
Minimum Frequency: 9kHz
Maximum Frequency: 1.5GHz
Resolution bandwidth: 10Hz

The HP ESA-E series of general-purpose, portable spectrum analyzers offer engineers in R&D, manufacturing and field service faster measurement speed than comparably priced products.

Engineers will also find that the superior dynamic range, accuracy and resolving power surpass other similarly priced analyzers. This new series, consisting of five models in frequency ranges from 1.5 GHz to 26.5 GHz, can help engineers spend less time testing and more time designing, building and trouble-shooting components and products.

These new spectrum analyzers provide 5-millisecond full-span RF sweep time, up to 28 measurements per second and up to 19 when transferred over HP-IB. As a result, you can get virtually real-time results when performing tests. The analyzers also operate with a continuously phase-locked synthesizer that can produce a span accuracy of +/- 1% and frequency accuracy of +/- 111 Hz. The overall amplitude accuracy of +/- 1 dB gives you measurement confidence.
