Agilent 8719D, 8720D, 8722D Option 007
Agilent 8719D, 8720D, 8722D Option 085
Includes instruments with Options 012 and/or 089
Option 007 replaces the standard solid-state trans-
fer switch with a mechanical switch to provide
higher output power.
Option 085 adds internally controlled 0 to 55 dB
step attenuators (5 dB steps) in the receiver path
of both ports, an RF loop that allows the addition
of an amplifier before the transfer switch, and RF
loops after the switch that allow insertion of isola-
tors, required for measurements above 1 watt. An
internal reference channel switch is added and
internal bias tees are deleted. This system is capa-
ble of full two-port calibrated measurements to 20
watts. Measurements up to 100 watts may be possi-
ble using specific configurations. Option 085 is not
compatible with Option 400.
