Repair and Service Evaluation - HP/Agilent 8722ES, 8722A, 8722C, 8722D, 8722ET

Repair and Service Evaluation for HP/Agilent 8722 series Vector Network Analyzers delivers comprehensive diagnostic assessment of the 8722A, 8722C, 8722D, 8722ES, and 8722ET instruments. This service identifies required repairs and restores operational integrity of these precision RF and microwave measurement systems used across research, manufacturing, and quality assurance operations.

Technical Specifications

Frequency Coverage: 50 MHz to 40 GHz across all models in the 8722 series. Measurement Capabilities: S-parameters, insertion loss, impedance, and transmission/reflection characteristics. Magnitude, phase, and group delay measurements supported. Full two-port error correction, adapter-removal, and optional TRL calibration available. Select models offer optional time-domain analysis with response display versus time or distance. Dynamic Range: Up to 100 dB or greater across the series, enabling precise measurement of both strong and weak signals. Measurement Speed: Fast-sweeping synthesized sources with measurement update times as low as approximately 1 ms per point. Data transfer rates up to seven times faster on newer processors. Source Output Power: Ranges from −75 dBm to +7 dBm standard configuration. Model 8722D delivers −50 dBm to +7 dBm. Model 8722C maximum source power −5 dBm. High-power Option 085 test set accommodates input/output to +43 dBm (20 watts).
